The carnage continues and the reinforcements multiply.
In the long list of injured group France was added this Saturday the name of Boubacar Kamara.
The Aston Villa midfielder was injured in the Premier League match won against Southampton (1-0).
Dr. Franck Le Gall, doctor of the Blues, decided, after consultation, that the midfielder could not participate in the next meeting of the France team.
Consequently, Didier Deschamps called on Marseillais Jordan Veretout (29 years old, 5 caps) to compensate for this new package, the French Football Federation announced in a press release.
The OM midfielder will therefore be present in the group to face Austria (Thursday September 22 at the Stade de France, 8:45 p.m.) and Denmark (Sunday September 25 in Copenhagen, 8:45 p.m.) in the League of Nations.
Veretout is thus the third name proposed for his post after the withdrawal of Kamara, who himself had taken the place of Adrien Rabiot, also injured.
Jordan Veretout has played 7 Ligue 1 games this season with Olympique de Marseille, which leads the championship, tied with Paris Saint-Germain and Lorient (19 points).
