France's Euro 2016 hopes suffered a setback on Tuesday May 24,2016 when
first-choice centre back Raphael Varane was ruled out of the tournament
through injury.
The French federation said in a statement that Varane, who has earned 29 caps since making his debut in 2013, was suffering from a thigh muscle injury that would have sidelined him for too long.
Raphael Varane, who picked up the injury playing for Real Madrid earlier this month, has been replaced in the squad by Sevilla's Adil Rami, who had already been called up as a reserve.
France are already without Liverpool centre back Mamadou Sakho, who is suspended after failing a dope test last month.
