Kylian Mbappe will miss France’s next two FIFA World Cup qualifiers with a calf injury and has left the team camp, the national federation FFF said on Thursday.

Mbappe suffered the injury during the world champions’ 1-1 draw with Bosnia-Herzegovina the previous day in Strasbourg.

The FFF said he felt some pain towards the end of the match.

He will return to his club Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and miss the qualifiers in Ukraine on Saturday and against Finland on Tuesday.
