Franck Ribery(31) , Bayern Munich player and Ballon d'Or Nominee has been ruled out of the France Squad due Lower Back injury . This happened when Ribery was training with his french mates during a practice session . This could turn out to be a big blow for France as Ribery is a player of international standards.
Ribery, who has won 81 caps, was instrumental in France's qualifying campaign, scoring five goals for the 1998 world champions.
The three-time French player of the year has been suffering from lower back pains for several weeks, playing only once for club or country since 29 April.
But his absence could present an opportunity to either 24-year-old midfielder Schneiderlin or Montpellier attacker Remy Cabella, who have been called into Deschamps' squad as replacements for Ribery and Grenier.
