Shock in the French National Team Camp Due to Saliba

The participation of French defender William Saliba in the upcoming World Cup has become highly doubtful after his injury worsened following his participation in the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday.

According to what was revealed by the "Foot Mercato" website, the player is still suffering from the effects of the injury, amid concerns within his circle that it might prevent him from joining the World Cup in 10 days.

The report confirmed that if Saliba's absence is confirmed, it would be a significant blow to the French national team, especially since he is one of the key pillars in coach Didier Deschamps' defense line. He had an outstanding season during which he won the English Premier League title with Arsenal, in addition to reaching the Champions League final.

The same source indicated that the player participated in the tournament final while suffering from clear pain, which led to the worsening of his condition after the match. He is set to undergo thorough medical examinations in the coming hours at the Clairefontaine center of the French national team to determine the extent of the injury definitively.

The upcoming medical report is expected to determine his participation in the tournament, amid significant concern within the French national team's coaching staff about losing one of their key defensive players before the World Cup kicks off.
