Martial joins N'Zonzi & Pavard in France squad

Anthony Martial has been called up to the France squad for their friendly matches against Wales and Germany in November.

Uncapped duo Steven N'Zonzi and Benjamin Pavard have also surprisingly been included on head coach Didier Deschamps' 24-man list.

Manchester United forward Martial, who has not played for his country since October 2016, has been rewarded for some strong recent form for Jose Mourinho's side.

Lyon captain Nabil Fekir has also earned a recall after being left out of the squad for last month's final World Cup qualifying matches.

Stuttgart defender Pavard and Sevilla's N'Zonzi have been given the chance to win their first senior caps, with both having played for the Under-21 side.
