Friendlies: France plays its game against Scotland

Wesley Fofana will not be there. Appearing in the list of twenty-three players selected for the Nations League matches with the Blues, the Chelsea defender was finally withdrawn, after knee pain.

The coach of the French team, Didier Deschamps, therefore decided to call Benjamin Pavard to replace him. The players are expected this Monday afternoon at the National Football Center in Clairefontaine. The Inter Milan defender will arrive in the evening. The Blues will face Israel next Thursday November 14 at the Stade de France.
