PARIS — Aston Villa midfielder Boubacar Kamara was called up for France's Nations League matches as a replacement for the injured Adrien Rabiot and then got injured himself on English Premier League duty hours later. Kamara came off in the 44th minute of Villa's 1-0 win over Southampton, having failed to run off an injury he sustained in a challenge moments earlier. Villa manager Steven Gerrard says he is concerned about the injury. France coach Didier Deschamps decided to replace Rabiot as a precautionary measure after assessing the Juventus player's left calf injury.
