On Monday, the 2018 World Cup team gathered at the Clairefontaine Center. France will play Germany in the Nations League (7 September) and then play friendly against the Netherlands (10/9).

In this central session, goalkeeper Hugo Lloris was absent due to a thigh injury. However, coach Deschamps said there would be no change for the French captain. Thus, he would have confidence in the vice squads of Blaise Matuidi and Raphael Varane.

Talking about the case of Paul Pogba - who is supposed to be given a new assignment at the national team, coach Deschamps has denied all: "Although Pogba played excellent at the World Cup, but I do not intend upset the rules established earlier ".

In addition to Lloris, goalkeeper Steve Mandanda (Marseille) is also absent. Thus, the opportunity can be given to either Alphonse Areola (PSG) or Benoit Costil (Bordeaux).
