French defender Maxence Lacroix, injured in the hamstring during the League Cup match between Chelsea and Liverpool, will not be able to answer the next call-up for the France national team.
The France national team will have to do without Maxence Lacroix for its next gathering. According to information reported by RMC Sport, the international defender is forced to withdraw due to an injury sustained at club level.
The Chelsea player was injured during the English League Cup match against Liverpool, played during the week. The confrontation ended in a draw at the end of regulation time (1-1), before the Londoners won on penalties (6-5). It was during this match that Lacroix felt pain in his thigh.
Medical examinations revealed a hamstring tear. This muscle injury requires a recovery time incompatible with the international calendar. The staff of the Blues has therefore been informed of the player's unavailability, and he will not be able to honor his selection.
Aged 26, Maxence Lacroix now has eleven caps with the France national team. His absence constitutes a hard blow for the coach, who will have to find a solution to compensate for this withdrawal in the defensive sector. The next gathering of the Blues is approaching, and the organization of the group will have to be adjusted accordingly.
This injury comes at a pivotal moment of the season, both for the London club and for the national team. Chelsea will also have to do without its defender in the upcoming fixtures. The player, for his part, will begin his rehabilitation to return to the pitch as soon as possible.
In the meantime, the medical staff of the Blues and that of the Blues will closely monitor the evolution of his injury. Lacroix's withdrawal opens the door for another defender for the next training camp, a decision that will be up to the coach.
