Pierre Kalulu pulls out of France squad after picking up muscle injury vs. Fiorentina

Pierre Kalulu, a Juventus player, has withdrawn from the France squad due to a muscle injury sustained during a match against Fiorentina. The injury occurred in his left thigh, specifically in the left biceps femoris muscle. After the match, Kalulu reported feeling muscle discomfort in his left thigh and underwent diagnostic tests at a medical facility, which confirmed a low-grade injury.

Subsequently, the French national team staff withdrew him from the squad. This injury is expected to sideline Kalulu for at least a couple of weeks, potentially affecting the upcoming games for Juventus.
