Three French WC winning stars who will miss the Qatar World Cup due to injuries

France
arguably
have
one
of
the
best
international
squads
in
the
world
for
the
last
few
years.
Their
world
cup
winning
squad
arguably
has
had
top
talents
almost
in
every
position.

But
the
French
team
has
slowly
evolved
from
the
side
that
lifted
the
trophy
in
Moscow
four
years
ago,
and
there
are
now
question
marks
over
some
of
those
2018
stalwarts.
Many
veterans
have
been
replaced
with
newer
blood
and
in
the
ongoing
tournament,
a
couple
more
could
be
forced
to
sit
out
due
to
injury
issues.

If
reports
are
to
be
believed
three
of
2018
World
Cup
winning
members
Paul
Pogba,
N’Golo
Kante,
and
Raphael
Varane
could
miss
the
FIFA
World
Cup
2022
due
to
injury
issues.
This
could
come
as
a
major
blow
to
the
French
team
as
all
of
them
have
been
pivotal
to
France’s
recent
success
all
along
and
their
experience
on
the
field
could
have
played
a
significant
role.

Paul
Pogba
is
to
miss
France’s
World
Cup
defence
as
he
needs
more
time
to
recover
from
knee
surgery.
Pogba
hasn’t
played
for
Juventus
since
re-signing
for
them
from
Manchester
United
in
the
summer,
damaging
the
meniscus
in
his
right
knee
in
July.
He
opted
for
surgery
and
was
expected
to
join
the
Juventus
squad
this
month.
However,
as
per
reports,
he
will
have
to
be
on
the
sidelines
as
he’s
still
recovering.

N’Golo
Kante
too
has
been
ruled
out
of
the
World
Cup
after
undergoing
an
operation
on
his
hamstring
which
will
see
him
sidelined
for
four
months.
One
of
the
best
players
of
the
World
Cup
last
time
around,
the
31-year-old
has
been
on
the
sideline
since
August
14
in
Chelsea’s
2-2
draw
with
Tottenham.
This
will
surely
be
a
major
blow
for
Les
Bleus.

Manchester
United
defender
Varane
too
could
miss
out
on
the
tournament
after
suffering
an
injury
against
Chelsea
just
one
week
back.
Varane
has
since
spent
time
at
France’s
famous
Clairefontaine
training
base.

The
center-back
is
in
a
race
to
be
fit
for
the
World
Cup
and
there
is
a
chance
of
him
making
it
to
the
squad
just
before
the
commencement
of
the
tournament.
However,
Deschamps
may
not
risk
him
further
and
could
instead
name
another
fit
player
as
his
replacement.
