“I had to make a change at the last minute because Paul Pogba was supposed to be in the squad,” Deschamps told media in a virtual press conference. “Unfortunately for him, he had a test yesterday which was positive this morning,” Deschamps added.
Camavinga along with Lyon’s Houssem Aouar and RB Leipzig’s Dayot Upamecano are part of the national camp for the first time.
