Club football in Europe has paused for the international break, with UEFA Nations League matches set for November.

The French national team is scheduled to face Israel on November 14 and Italy on November 17.

However, Chelsea defender Wesley Fofana will not be available to assist Les Bleus in these matches, as confirmed by the London club.

Details: Chelsea issued a statement indicating that the defender will be excluded from France's November matches. Fofana experienced pain in his left knee following Chelsea's 1-1 draw with Arsenal, and the club does not intend to risk his health.

It is also noteworthy that Kylian Mbappé, one of the biggest stars in modern French football, did not make the squad for France's November matches.
