According to French media outlet L’Équipe, the French team is facing an injury crisis, with two centre-backs, Saliba and Upamecano, missing Wednesday’s training session due to muscle pain. The good news is that Giroud will be back in time to join the group training. Mbappé will return to the training ground, but will only train individually.
In France’s opening match, Saliba beat out Konaté to start alongside Upamecano, and he put in a strong performance. This was also Saliba’s first time starting for France in a major international tournament. With the highly anticipated France-Netherlands match less than two days away, the two centre-back partners may face the possibility of missing out.
L’Équipe revealed that Saliba and Upamecano both missed Wednesday’s training session due to muscle pain. However, Deschamps received good news, as Giroud, who missed Tuesday’s training session due to a minor injury, will be joining the team for Wednesday’s group training. In addition, there is mixed news about Mbappé, the player everyone is most concerned about. He will undergo further examination on Wednesday after suffering a broken nose in the match against Austria. He has now returned to the team and is taking part in training. Mbappé will not join the first-team training sessions, but he will run laps on the training ground to maintain his physical condition.
