Tchouameni (thigh) has improved after missing the previous match and training individually Monday and Tuesday, but remains a game-time decision for Thursday against Morocco, coach Didier Deschamps said in press conference, according to L'Equipe. " It's only him to see, but he's better. I can't tell you more. He may participate in the training session today (Wednesday). I need to assess the situation.
Analysis:Tchouameni missed the previous match with a thigh injury before working individually on Monday and Tuesday. The national team coach, Didier Deschamps, declined to confirm his availability against Morocco, noting he may take part in training and that a decision is still pending. However, with the assessment coming so close to kickoff, the midfielder appears unlikely to start and could not even play despite a spot on the team sheet, with Manu Kone tipped to fill in as he did versus Paraguay.
