RB Leipzig and France attacking midfielder Christopher Nkunku, who will miss the World Cup due to an injury sustained in training after colliding with team-mate Eduard Kamavinga, has come to the defense of his teammate.
"After a medical examination, I had to leave the national team, and I will not be able to participate in the World Cup. Now it's time to work with the single goal of coming back even stronger. I expressed my support for Edward Kamawing, who is being unfairly attacked. The World Cup should be a tool for communication, not division. Thanks to all the national team staff and players for their support. I will be your number one fan,” Nkunku wrote on his Twitter page.
