France will be without Kylian Mbappé for their upcoming UEFA Nations League fixture against Italy in Milan.
The Real Madrid star sat out of Wednesday's training session with a hamstring issue and Zinedine Zidane subsequently called up Paris Saint-Germain forward Senny Mayulu to deputise in his absence.
Mbappé had returned to the France squad after missing their previous three matches due to injury.
The forward had netted the winning goal in Zidane's first match as head coach against Turkey in September, but he was later withdrawn after experiencing pain in his left knee.
Despite missing France's fixtures, Mbappé immediately returned to action with Real Madrid, playing the 90 minutes against Villarreal before scoring braces against Sevilla and Barcelona in El Clasico.
When is Kylian Mbappé expected to return from injury?
L'Equipe have reported that Mbappé's absence is a precautionary measure and the forward should be available to face Turkey on Sunday in Bordeaux.
Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho will be hoping there's nothing more sinister to Mbappé's hamstring issue with Los Blancos back in La Liga action in 10 days time.
Despite his injury absences for France, Mbappé is yet to miss a match for Real Madrid this season and Mourinho's men face a congested period after the international break as they play six matches in 18 days.
