France stars show off their eccentric fashion tastes as they report for World Cup duty

FRANCE stars showed off their eccentric fashion tastes as they reported for World Cup duty on Wednesday.

Blaise Matuidi, Paul Pogba, Samuel Umtiti, Benjamin Mendy, Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele were just some of the big-names on show.

But it was one-cap star Presnel Kimpembe who stole the show with his colourful hair, wacky jacket and trainer combination.

The Paris Saint-Germain defender, 22, combined black and gold as he walked to France HQ at Clairefontaine.

Olivier Giroud and Antoine Griezmann were just two other stars spotted amongst Wednesday's melee, as the 23-man squad prepares to jet off to Russia.

The France squad has been shrouded in controversy ever since it was named - with Anthony Martial and Alexandre Lacazette dropped by Didier Deschamps.

Dimitri Payet and Adrien Rabiot also missed out - with the latter reportedly demanding to be taken off the standby list.

Perhaps surprisingly, Deschamps elected to call up Sevilla midfielder Steven N'Zonzi in place of the Paris Saint-Germain man.

RABI-OUT Adrien Rabiot ‘asks to be off stand-by list for France’s World Cup squad’ and insists he will ‘not keep fit’

Rabiot, 23, along with the likes of Martial, Lacazette and Kingsley Coman, are first reserves — and could be called upon should injury befall any of the chosen 23.

However, various reports in France insist he has asked to be taken off standby, and has told the French FA he will will not be working on his fitness, making himself unavailable.
