France Defender William Saliba Doubtful for World Cup After Back Injury

Arsenal and France defender William Saliba is reported to be doubtful for the World Cup after suffering a back injury a few weeks ago. Sources say his recovery may take longer than expected, forcing a revision of his training schedule.

Saliba's absence could unsettle France's defensive stability and push the coach to rethink the squad composition. The injury also threatens to impact the final preparation matches before the tournament.

France is now looking at alternative options to shore up its back line.
