France are currently holding a training camp in Nice as they fine-tune their preparations for Sunday’s game at the Stade de France.

However, head coach Fabien Galthié will now have to plan without Chat, 24, after the Racing hooker sustained a calf injury.

Chat will be replaced by Racing teammate Teddy Baubigny in the squad, with Toulouse’s Julien Marchand now expected to start against the beaten World Cup finalists.

France are currently in a period of transition following the departure of head coach Jacques Brunel after the World Cup, with his successor, Galthié, putting an emphasis on youth in his Six Nations squad.

This Six Nations could see potential debuts could be beckoning for Montpellier’s Mohamed Haouas, Racing 92’s Boris Palu, Lyon’s Dylan Cretin and Clermont’s Alexandre Fischer in the pack, while only Bernard Le Roux and Jefferson Poirot boast over 30 international caps for Les Bleus.

Charles Ollivon has taken on the captaincy following the retirement of Guilhem Guirado.

What Newcastle 'can’t legislate for' as they face fellow basement dwellers

As a retired doc, I never thought I'd get scammed, especially not out of a whopping $98,000 in Bitcoin, thanks to a terrible forex deal. It was a crazy, hard-to-believe ordeal that left me financially drowned and lost. Realizing I'd seemingly lost all my savings was, to put it mildly, a lot to handle. But, amidst all this financial chaos, hope was restored when I found reviews about META TECH RECOVERY PRO. This sad ordeal started with what looked like a mouth-watering investment. Unfortunately, it was an existing organized fraud scheme, I only realized that after getting in touch with META TECH RECOVERY PRO. The truth hit me hard, and I was left dealing with the fallout, clueless about what to do. The digital world's complexity and the tricky process of getting back lost money made me feel helpless. Luckily, while looking for answers, I saw reviews raving about the skills of META TECH RECOVERY PRO's hackers. Out for a solution, I decided to contact them. The reviews talked about how they helped people like me recover lost Bitcoin investments. With a mix of doubt and hope, I figured I'd give it a try, thinking there might be a chance to get back what I'd lost. In no time, they showed off their digital skills by successfully getting back all my lost funds. I can't even begin to describe how grateful and relieved I felt. Having META TECH RECOVERY PRO on my side was amazing and super helpful. If you, like me, have been ripped off by fake forex brokers and scammers, it's good to know that META TECH RECOVERY PRO is there to help.
