France coach Zidane to ring changes for clash against Belgium

France coach Zinedine Zidane is set to make changes to his lineup for their upcoming Nations League match against Belgium on Monday. This decision comes after the team's captain, Kylian Mbappe, sustained an injury and was forced off during Friday's 1-0 victory over Turkey. Mbappe has since returned to Real Madrid. Zidane confirmed there would be alterations to the team, but the extent of these changes would be revealed during the next press conference.

The coach emphasized the importance of getting to know his players and understanding his expectations, while also highlighting the significance of winning the match. Belgium, who defeated Italy 2-0 in their opening match, are expected to present a tough challenge. Zidane acknowledged the difficulty of the upcoming game, but also expressed his team's competitive spirit and eagerness to play high-profile fixtures.
