France: Kimpembe withdraws from the World Cup due to injury, Disassie is substituted
On November 14, the French team announced a "personnel adjustment" shortly after officially announcing the recruitment of striker Thuram Junior.
Due to an unsatisfactory recovery from injury, central defender Kimpembe, who plays for Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1, has withdrawn from the World Cup squad. Meanwhile, the Gallic Roosters called up Monaco defender Dissi.
Kimpembe suffered an Achilles tendon impact earlier this month and missed the final round of the Champions League group stage.
The Parisian centre-back's injury was not serious according to initial estimates, and he quickly returned, coming off the bench for 15 minutes in Paris' 5-0 Ligue 1 win over Auxerre last weekend.
Disassie replaces the injured Kimpembe.
However, according to the French Football Federation, after Kimpembe's direct communication with the national team doctor, the central defender still felt that his physical recovery was not sufficient and may not be enough to occupy a place in the current national team. So after communicating with manager Deschamps, the decision was finally made.
The 24-year-old is a physically strong centre-back, reaching a height of 1.90 meters. He previously played at Reims and joined Monaco in 2020 for €13 million.
Di Sasi has made 15 Ligue 1 appearances for Monaco this season, contributing one goal and three assists.
It is worth mentioning that Disassi has not previously played for the French senior national team, and this is also the first time he has been called.
