I always wondered if Grenier was mixed, or just swarthy. Here's some more pics of him:

If a Frenchman of Breton origin was visiting the US as a tourist and you ask him what he is, he's going to tell you he's French, not Breton. If he goes to Germany and they ask him he's going to say the same thing. Every white person in France has a specific regional origin. France was originally a celtic nation with the gauls and bretons are celtic people so they are descendants of the original frenchmen if anything.

Mathieu Debuchy = Dinaricised (e.g keltic) Sub-Nordid from what I can tell from the frontal shot

Ethnic French. He is from Southern France, it's quite normal for him to look like that.

I thought Occitans and North Italians were the same people. Imagine if you said that the average North Italian looked like that. Insta shitstorm.
Anyways he don't look like typical Occitan.

He is Catalan. Why is Breton French but Catalan isn't?

He's from Spain(Catalonia). Gourcoff is from Britanny, France. Bretons are equally part of the French state as Parisians.

He was born in Nice, France.
Bretons are equally part of the French state as Parisians.
So are Corsicans, but I believe they are regarded as an ethnic minority.

He was born in Nice, France.
If I remember correctly, his parents hail from the Spanish region Catalonia, and not from French Catalonia. Therefore he's not ethnic French.

You cannot compare Corsicans with Bretons. The ethnic background of the Bretons is almost excatly the same as the rest of France. The same can't be said about Corsica. But there arn't any Corsican players in the French squad, or else I would have posted them together with the other Frenchmen.

Whether from "Spanish" Catalonia or "French" Catalonia, he would be an ethnic Catalan. Ethnicity is not the same as nationality or citizenship.

People want to pass him as being French, in the meaning Oíl or Occitan French, don't blame me.

What's your issue?
These are in fact the only ethnic French ones, here check for yourself: Current Squad (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France_national_football_team#Players)
You cannot cherry pick that.
