Raphael Varane and Ibrahima Konate are the latest players to fall ill in the France squad ahead of Sunday’s World Cup final against Argentina, taking the total up to five.
France manager Didier Deschamps had already confirmed that winger Kingsley Coman was the third player, while both Adrien Rabiot and Dayot Upamecano had been unavailable for the semi-final victory over Croatia after contracting a virus which a handful of players have attributed to the air conditioning systems present in the stadiums in Qatar.
Coman complained of flu-like symptoms and Deschamps admitted on Friday morning that France face a battle to avoid an outbreak in the camp ahead of the final against Argentina in two days.
