The Paris Saint-Germain forward went to ground after Rami’s challenge, and remained there for several minutes as medical staff assessed the injury before leaving the session.

The incident left Rami red-faced, with France opening up their World Cup campaign in Russia on Saturday, when they play Australia at 11am BST.

"I'm fine," he said. "It's just a hit so it doesn't matter but thanks for your messages. PS. And let my friend Rami [know] it was not nasty."
