The verdict is in. After cutting short his training this Wednesday at Clairefontaine, Eduardo Camavinga (13 caps, 1 goal) suffered from a sprained right knee which forced him to abandon the rally. The Real Madrid and Blues midfielder will not participate in the matches against Gibraltar, this Saturday in Nice, then in Greece three days later, at the end of qualifying for Euro 2024, a competition for which the Tricolores are already qualified.
Positioned in a sentry role during the day’s opposition, the former Rennais had to stop his session after a clash with Ousmane Dembélé. Quickly taken care of by members of the staff, he got up, limping a little. His first sensations, immediately, were reassuring before the exams finally confirmed his loss.
While waiting to know the exact duration of his unavailability, Camavinga will leave the group in the coming hours. According to our information, he should be able to avoid the operation even if new examinations will be carried out in Madrid to refine the diagnosis.
The France team was already without Aurélien Tchouaméni in midfield. These absences will perhaps benefit young Warren Zaire-Emery. The Parisian Titi, called up for the first time, could why not start the match against Gibraltar and become at 17 years 8 months and 10 days the youngest French international since 1945.
