Liverpool forward Hugo Ekitike has earned a first senior international call-up for France.
The striker – who joined the Reds from Eintracht Frankfurt earlier this summer – had previously been capped by his country up to U21 level.
Ekitike has now secured a senior call and will be included in Didier Deschamps’ squad for the upcoming international break as a replacement for the injured Rayan Cherki.
France will take on Ukraine (September 5) and Iceland (September 9) in World Cup qualifying action.
