PARIS (AP) – Defending champion France’s World Cup injury worries continued as forward Christopher Nkunku was injured in the team’s training session and replaced by Randal Kolo Muani yesterday.
The 25-year-old Nkunku went down clutching his left leg after a tackle from midfielder Eduardo Camavinga during training.
Kolo Muani was selected as his replacement shortly before the team flew out to Qatar, the French football federation said in a statement.
