Despite being eligible for the Caribbean nation, Edouard felt that accepting the offer would be unfair to the players who earned the qualification spot. The forward, who represented France at youth level, explained: "No, I didn't feel legitimate playing in this World Cup because the players fought to qualify and I wasn't going to show up at the last minute to take advantage of this World Cup. If I'm going to play in it, I have to earn it."
