Is Charles Ollivon’s state of health worrying? The third line of the XV of France, who has already shortened his session on Monday, not participating in the opposition at the end of training according to information from Midi Olympique, did not return to the pitch this Tuesday afternoon for the contact session. However, he had participated in the training dedicated to touches and combinations in the morning.

“He has a little tightness in his calf, nothing extraordinary,” reassured William Servat, the coach of the French forwards. He had a little tension. We are ten days away from an important match, we preferred to preserve it for safety. »

Possible future captain of the Blues in the absence of Antoine Dupont, victim of a maxillo-zygomatic fracture during the match against Namibia last Thursday, Charles Ollivon is therefore spared by Fabien Galthié and his deputies. Since the start of the World Cup, the RC Toulon player has still participated in two matches: against New Zealand and against Namibia.

An injury to the third row would be a new blow for the French XV, which is already deprived of Antoine Dupont for the last match of the group stage against Italy. Julien Marchand and Paul Boudehent could make their return. Respectively victims of a hamstring muscle injury and a concussion, the two French people are applying for a place in the 23 against the Italians on Friday October 6.
