'I am not worried' - Deschamps plays down fears over persistent Coman injuries

Didier Deschamps has backed Kingsley Coman to recover from his latest injury setback after the Bayern Munich winger was ruled out of France's Euro 2020 qualifier with Iceland.

Coman had been expected to start France's opening match of Group H against Moldova on Friday but injured his back in the warm-up, and it has forced him to withdraw from the squad.

An ankle injury also meant Coman missed the first three months of the Bundesliga season and he was sidelined with a hamstring problem last month.
