During the Champions League final lost by Arsenal on May 30 against PSG, Saliba had already played while weakened. The ax fell on Tuesday when he finally had to give up and go out injured against Spain in the first period (2-0). “My back is dead”he said before leaving the pitch.
RMC Sport revealed that the player had played with a broken back, which left little room for doubt regarding a possible operation.
