Upamecano pulls out of France squad

Thigh injury keeps Bayern's Dayot Upamecano out of France's upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
Bayern München defender Dayot Upamecano has been forced to pull out of France's squad for next month's games against Bosnia-Herzegovina, Ukraine and Finland.



The French Football Federation has announced that Upamecano will be replaced by FC Barcelona's Clement Lenglet after sustaining a thigh injury.

Upamecano, 22, was forced off at half-time during Bayern's 5-0 thrashing of Hertha BSC last Saturday.

He has featured in all of Bayern's three Bundesliga games following his summer move from RB Leipzig.
