Didier Deschamps has handed Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konate his first call-up to the France senior squad as a replacement for Raphael Varane.
Manchester United defender Varane sustained a hamstring injury during Les Bleus’ 2-1 Nations League defeat to Denmark on Friday, and has had to withdraw from the squad ahead of the next three games.
Kylian Mbappe was also forced off with a knee problem at half-time in the game at the Stade de France, with assistant coach Guy Stephan saying the Paris Saint-Germain star would be assessed.
