Camavinga, 21, hurt his knee after a clash with Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembélé during a small practice match and didn't finish the training session. He left the pitch at Clairefontaine grimacing and told the France staff that his knee had "turned," sources told ESPN.
The first medical diagnosis was positive and even the player himself felt OK. However, a second diagnosis, made later in the day, painted a less encouraging picture, sources added.
