Arsenal defender William Saliba could be set to miss out on a place in Didier Deschamps' World Cup final starting XI following reports that first choice pairing Ibrahima Konate and Raphael Varane have re-joined the group following illness.
After surpassing Poland, England and Morocco on their way to tomorrow's final against Argentina, reports had surfaced that the Arsenal centre-back may be in line for a starting role after RMC Sport reporter Fabrice Hawkins reported that Konate and Varane had become ill.
Hawkins said: "Two other players caught cold. Defenders Raphael Varane and Ibrahima Konate. Their situation is not alarming but the staff will closely monitor their state of health. Kingsley Coman is better."
