Ousmane Dembélé could also give up the rally

Physically diminished, the twirling winger of Saint-Germain (27 years old) could miss the two matches which await the French team during this gathering in November, against Israel (Thursday at 8:45 p.m.) then against Italy (Sunday at 8:45 p.m.).

Ousmane Dembélé should not participate in the traditional fall-winter collection parade of the French team, this Monday afternoon, on the steps of the Château de Clairefontaine. According to information from RMC Sport, after Wesley Fofana, it is Ousmane Dembélé who could also miss the team gathering.

Physically diminished, Ousmane Dembélé felt discomfort in his ischio when he came into play against (4-2) on Saturday. The twirling Paris Saint-Germain winger took exams on Sunday with the capital club. He should reach Clairefontaine during the day, but only to have his injury noted, as required by the procedure in force.

This is a new blow for coach Didier Deschamps, who also chose to do without his captain, Kylian Mbappé, for these two matches against Israel (Thursday at 8:45 p.m.) and Italy (Sunday at 8:45 p.m.) .

Mbappé failed for the month of November

Mbappé had already missed the one in October, due to an injury to his left thigh, but he still played with Real Madrid, immediately triggering a controversy, before taking a little trip to Sweden. An escapade that has been talked about a lot in recent weeks since an investigation for rape linked to Mbappé's stay in Stockholm would target the player.

However, Didier Deschamps assured last week that the absence of Kylian Mbappé was not linked to the captain's extra-sporting problems. Not wishing to dwell on the reasons which pushed him to take this strong decision, the coach took refuge behind secrecy so as not to launch into “an argument which leads to interpretations”. “It’s better that way,” he only said.

If the absence of Ousmane Dembélé were to be added to that of Dembélé, the attack of the French team would find itself deprived of two of its offensive leaders.
