World Cup Boost: Saliba Returns to France Training Before Clash with Senegal
1 / 2
France have welcomed the return of centre-back William Saliba to full training ahead of their 2026 World Cup opener against Senegal. Saliba had missed sessions due to a back issue that flared after the Champions League final loss to PSG. The 25-year-old Arsenal defender has now been cleared by the medical team, according to reliable reports. His return strengthens Didier Deschamps’ backline as Les Bleus chase a third World Cup title. France will kick off against Senegal on June 16 before facing Iraq in Philadelphia and Norway in Boston.
