Ex-Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini has been called up to the French squad for Euro 2008 following concerns over the fitness of captain Patrick Vieira.
"Flamini is arriving today at Clairefontaine (France's training camp) and is added to the 23-man squad," team spokesman Yann Le Guillard.
Le Guillard added that no player had pulled out yet as France have until June 8, one day before their Group C opener against Romania, to make changes to their squad in case of an injury.
Vieira has not played in his side's last two warm-up games against Ecuador and Paraguay. He left a training session on Friday with a suspected left thigh injury.
France coach Raymond Domenech declined to comment on Vieira's situation.
Flamini, who is set to join AC Milan on July 1, had been included in a provisional 30-man squad but was surprisingly left out of the final 23-man squad last week.
Le Guillard added that the player would travel to Switzerland with the squad on Wednesday.
