Pierre Kalulu will be forced to drop out of the France national team squad after suffering a muscular injury during Juventus’s 2-2 draw against Fiorentina on Sunday evening. Kalulu reported for medical tests on Monday morning and has been diagnosed with a minor muscular issue. Juventus have since released a statement confirming Kalulu's withdrawal from the France squad. The statement revealed that Kalulu underwent diagnostic tests after reporting muscle discomfort in his left thigh following the match against Fiorentina.
The scans carried out at J|medical revealed a low-grade injury to his left biceps femoris. Kalulu has begun treatment, in consultation with the French national team staff, who have withdrawn him from the squad. This means that Kalulu will be sidelines for a period of around three weeks, missing France's upcoming Nations League fixtures against Italy and Turkiye. France are due to take on Italy in the Nations League in San Siro on Thursday evening.
