William Saliba might not get a chance in this World Cup

William Saliba is yet to feature for France this World Cup.

The 2018 World Cup winners have already secured their place in the last 16 and Arsenal defender William Saliba is yet to play a minute for the Les Blues.

Fortunately, he made his World Cup debut last night against Tunisia and earned his 8th cap in the process.

Mikael Silvestre was worried about Saliba’s chances in this World Cup.

‘I would think that Varane would continue [against Tunisia] and I’m afraid for Saliba, that Upamecano will also continue,’ Silvestre told Bettingexpert.

‘The pair did well against Denmark and they need to work more together to get used to one another.

‘Unless France start playing with three at the back, which could be an option for the next round but I doubt it.

‘So, in the central defence, I do not expect any change. That’s not where you run the most so I think they [Varane and Upamecano] can play two-three games in a row. So it would make sense for them to start against Tunisia.’
