Olivier Giroud faces a late fitness test after suffering an injury in training ahead of the 2022 World Cup. The 36-year-old had already been named in Didier Deschamps’ squad ahead of the global showpiece in Qatar.
The World Champions landed in Doha on Wednesday, seeking to become the first team to retain the World Cup since Brazil in 1962.
However, their preparations have taken a hit with the news that Giroud sustained a knock to his left foot in training.
