The French Football Federation revealed on Saturday that Real Madrid midfielder Lassana Diarra will miss the World Cup finals due to a stomach complaint.
Diarra was named in Raymond Domenech's squad for the finals in South Africa after making 23 appearances in the Primera Liga this season as Real finished second to Barcelona.
But Diarra was unable to train with his international team-mates on Thursday, Friday or Saturday and has now been withdrawn from consideration.
A replacement player has not yet been called up to join France in the Alpine resort of Tignes where they are preparing for the finals in South Africa.
Les Bleus face Mexico, South Africa and Uruguay in Group A.
