GettyWHAT HAPPENED?
Rabiot has been left out of France's squad for the Nations League group-stage openers against Italy and Belgium as the French midfielder is currently a free agent following his departure from Juventus. As such, Rabiot has been training alone and Deschamps has explained why he left the 29-year-old out of France's squad.
GettyWHAT DESCHAMPS SAID
Speaking to the media, Deschamps said: "Adrien Rabiot has a somewhat embarrassing situation. His contract was expiring and he was solicited by several teams but now he's without a team and doesn’t train in a group.
"I hope he can quickly choose a club that can then bring him back to us."
