The French national team will play an away match against the Icelandic team in the fourth round of the qualifying stage for the 2026 World Cup. The coaches are faced with a difficulty - they are deprived of the support of midfielder Adrien Rabiot. It is noted that after the report of an injury to striker Kylian Mbappe, information appeared about muscle damage to the central midfielder of Milan. Rabiot played 70 minutes in the match against Azerbaijan and scored a goal immediately before being substituted. He contacted the team's medical staff complaining of discomfort in his hip..

Doctors concluded that it would be better for the player to skip training before the game and return to his club. However, it is reported that Rabiot's injury is not serious and it should not affect his participation in Milan's match against Fiorentina, which is scheduled for next weekend. Let us remind you that France and Iceland are Ukraine’s rivals in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
