France call up Senny Mayulu as Mbappé’s status for Italy remains uncertain

Senny Mayulu was already at Clairefontaine with France’s under-21 squad when Zidane called him up to the senior team for the first time. His arrival comes as Mbappé’s availability for Italy is uncertain. Kooora, citing French media reports, says Mbappé missed the final group training session and received treatment; it also reports hamstring discomfort, while noting that the French federation gave no details about his condition. The purpose of Mayulu’s call-up is being described differently: accounts relayed by Kooora tie it to Tchouaméni leaving the squad or to attacking cover, particularly at centre-forward. L’Équipe frames it as reinforcement amid the uncertainty around Mbappé.
