France without Kylian Mbappé at San Siro; Lamine Yamal ruled out
Zinedine Zidane will be missing captain Kylian Mbappé for Italy–France on 12 November 2026; Lamine Yamal is also sidelined ahead of Czech Republic–Spain.
Eight Nations League fixtures will be played tonight, with the headline match taking place at San Siro in Milan where Italy host France on 12 November 2026. France coach Zinedine Zidane faces a selection headache after injuries to several key players.
The most significant absence from the French line-up is captain Kylian Mbappé, who will not be available for the trip to San Siro due to injury. Zidane confirmed the squad will be without his leading forward for the clash with Italy.
Spain will also be missing a key youngster: Lamine Yamal is ruled out of the away game against the Czech Republic because of a knock, so he will miss tonight’s match in that group.
At Wembley in London, England face Croatia in a game marked by a milestone for Harry Kane. The striker will make his 126th appearance for England and thereby become his country’s new record-holder.
