The French Federation has confirmed that Kingsley Coman left the national team training camp on the eve of the Euro 2024 quarterfinal. He has travelled to Sweden to welcome the birth of his fourth child, which may cause him to miss the quarterfinal.
So far, Coman’s presence in this French national team has been minimal, with only one substitute appearance against the Netherlands in the group stage. The Bayern winger was hampered by injuries towards the end of last season and has been struggling with fitness since. He managed to recover in time for the Euros, but despite the poor form of Dembele, Coman failed to gain the trust of Deschamps.
Ahead of the round of 16 match against Belgium, which France won 1-0, manager Deschamps refused to use traditional wingers like Coman. Following the game, the French Federation confirmed that Coman had already left the national team training camp and travelled to Sweden to join his wife, where he will welcome their fourth child. His return date is currently uncertain, and it is a huge unknown whether he will be able to make it back in time for France’s quarterfinal against Portugal on Friday.
