France boss Didier Deschamps has admitted that Paul Pogba will miss the upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers for his side.

Deschamps was hoping that Pogba would be involved in the upcoming national team games.

But it appears the midfielder has suffered a recurrence of an ankle injury that has troubled him all season.

Pogba is likely to miss game time for his club Manchester United as well.

"It's a new worry with his ankle," Les Bleus coach Deschamps told reporters.

"He played in the [Carabao] Cup, he played again on Monday against Arsenal. He again has a problem that's going to keep him out of action for three weeks.

"I'd prefer he was there like all the available players but unfortunately he isn't in a physical state to be present."
