There was more disappointment for Kylian Mbappe on Thursday as he was forced to leave France’s camp early with a calf injury.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward picked up the problem in the draw against Bosnia on Wednesday and has since undergone tests which have ruled him out of Les Bleus’ fixtures against Ukraine and Finland. The 22-year-old has returned to the French capital to continue treatment at his club.
