Premier League stars Paul Pogba, Laurent Koscielny, Olivier Giroud and Moussa Sissoko arrived in Clairefontaine to link up with Didier Deschamps' France squad ahead of next month's fixtures.

The players from Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham were granted slightly longer to rest following the conclusion of the English season with Giroud taking part in Saturday's FA Cup final and Pogba in last Wednesday's Europa League final.

Ousmane Dembele, who earlier on Tuesday discovered that Borussia Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel had parted company with the club, also arrived along with PSG midfielder Adrien Rabiot.
