Christopher Nkunku has been ruled out of the World Cup after suffering a heavy tackle in France's last training before departing for Qatar. This coming just seven days before France's World Cup opener against Australia.

Nkunku, 25, was expected to play a significant role in France's World Cup defense after scoring 42 goals for RB Leipzig since the start of the 2021/22 season.

He has since been replaced by Eintracht Frankfurt's Kolo Muani
