Paul Pogba has been left out of France's international squad after testing positive for COVID-19.
France manager Didier Deschamps said the midfielder had been replaced after he tested positive on August 26.
"Unfortunately, he tested positive yesterday, and this morning I replaced him with Camavinga," he said.
The Manchester United midfielder will, therefore, miss out on France's first international games since November 17.
International fixtures - notably Euro 2020 - were canceled or postponed in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.
France is to play against Sweden on September 5, and then Croatia three days later at the Stade de France.
