Blues: Paul Pogba is injured in training and leaves the session

In Clairefontaine

Hard blow for the Blues.

During a classic punching exercise at the end of the session this Monday in the coldness of Clairefontaine, Paul Pogba injured his right thigh after feeling pain following his gesture.

In the process, Didier Deschamps and Guy Stephan came to see their player to inquire about the health of their player, grimacing and forced to leave the lawn.

The Manchester United midfielder, accompanied after the selection doctor, Franck Le Gall, joined the locker room very quickly, limping low.

The France team has been meeting since Monday at Clairefontaine for the matches against Kazakhstan on Saturday and Finland on Tuesday, counting for the qualifications for the 2022 World Cup. As at each start of the training camp, the Blues were entitled to a very light training, due to the many players present on the lawns this weekend.

Just before the injury of the "pickaxe", Pogba, Pavard and Areola had made small games with the ball and strikes at the end of the session.

Thirteen players out of the 23 jogged around ten minutes while the other seven (Griezmann, Mbappé, Benzema, Digne, Zouma and the Hernandez brothers) remained indoors.

But Monday night for the Blues and Pogba, the concerns are there.
