Urgent! One of France's key players could miss the World Cup Getty

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner, but the French national team could be dealt a major blow ahead of the tournament.

Details: According to Santi Aouna, central defender William Saliba could be sidelined for the next several weeks. Reports indicate that he was not fully fit ahead of the match against Paris Saint-Germain and aggravated his injury during the game.

The centre-back is still experiencing pain, and his condition has become a source of serious concern for the French Football Federation just days before the start of the World Cup.

At the 2026 FIFA World Cup, France have been drawn into Group I alongside Norway, Senegal and Iraq. The reigning world runners-up will open their campaign against Senegal on June 16, with kick-off scheduled for 21:00 CET.

Reminder: The Argentine superstar will miss the national team's upcoming match due to health concerns. The fixture is a friendly against Honduras.
