The French Football Federation called up Paris Saint-Germain player Senny Mayulu to the national team camp, as it officially announced. The move came after Kylian Mbappé’s absence with a muscle problem and ahead of the Nations League match against Italy.
France will play two matches during the international break: against Italy on Thursday, then Türkiye on Sunday, November 15. Aurélien Tchouaméni, Pierre Kalulu and Marcus Thuram had left the camp, while coach Zinedine Zidane had previously called up Saël Kumbedi and Eli Junior Kroupi to cover the absences.
Mayulu plays in midfield and in various attacking positions, which could allow him to be brought in to cover for Mbappé’s absence against Italy. The source noted that Mbappé is unlikely to play in the match, though he could be fit for the game against Türkiye.
