Wolfsburg midfielder Josuha Guilavogui has been called up to the France squad to replace the injured Lyon Maxime Gonalons.
Gonalons, 26, withdrew after sustaining a hamstring tear in his club's 2-1 Ligue 1 defeat to Nice on Saturday and has been replaced by Guilavogui, 24, for the upcoming internationals against Brazil and Denmark.
After coming to prominence at St Etienne, Guilavogui -- who made a first international appearance in more than a year during November's 1-0 friendly win over Sweden -- endured a disappointing spell with Atletico Madrid before moving to Wolfsburg, where he has played a key role in their push for a top-four finish in the Bundesliga this season.
St Etienne said to their ex-player on Twitter that they "want to see you in Le Chaudron on Sunday with the French national team shirt" as Les Bleus' game against Denmark will be played at the club's Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.
Hey @JossGuilavogui ! On veut te voir dimanche dans le Chaudron avec le maillot de l'@equipedefrance !!!
