The international break is slated to start after next weekend, and France have qualifier matches against the Netherlands and Ireland, but they cannot count on the 2018 World Cup winner, who is now injured.
Pogba has played only 34 minutes of football for Juventus and suffered a thigh injury a few weeks after making his competitive debut.
He had to wait that long for his first league game for the Old Lady as he suffered an injury during the preseason that has kept him out of action, including for France at the World Cup.
Pogba's continued absence
Since making his debut against Torino in February, Pogba has only featured once more for Juve, coming on in the 1-0 defeat to Roma.

As previously reported, the Juventus manager, Massimiliano Allegri, explained that Paul Pogba missed the victory over Sampdoria because he felt discomfort while practising free-kicks in training.
The midfielder is now confirmed to be set for a significant timeout due to injury.
