A new player leaves the Blues after the slap against Spain

The bad news is linked for the French team. After the defeat against Spain (5-4) in the semi-final of the League of Nations, there is breakage in the tricolor ranks.

After the departures announced on Friday from Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola, another player leaves the tricolor gathering on injury. It is Clément Lenglet, hit in the hip.

“Didier Deschamps, the national coach, decided, after exchange with the player, to deliver him at the disposal of his club this Saturday morning June 7”indicates the FFF. Lenglet will therefore find Atlético de Madrid, which is preparing the Club World Cup.

Lenglet was his return

Clément Lenglet had not been called in the French team for four years. The former FC Barcelona player notably benefited from the absences of Dayot Upamecano, William Saliba or even Jules Koundé. Within a revised defense, he had greatly suffered against Spain.

To face Germany on Sunday during the small final, Didier Deschamps will be able to count on Ibrahima Konaté, Loïc Badé and Lucas Hernandez. Benjamin Pavard and Pierre Kalulu can also evolve in the axis.
