France forward Ousmane Dembele has been ruled out of Euro 2020 with an injury, the French football federation said on Monday, in a blow to the world champion's ambitions.
Dembele came in as a second-half substitute in the world champions' 1-1 Group F draw against Hungary on Saturday and made an immediate impact on his attack, but was left limp with a knee injury.
"Osmane Dembele had an X-ray at a Budapest hospital on Sunday night," the FFF said in a statement.
"The recovery time is inconsistent with his stay in the team. After discussions with player and [team doctor] Franck Le Gall, [coach] Didier Deschamps has admitted that Ousmane Dembele is out for the rest of the tournament. "
Deschamps still has other attacking options behind starters Antoine Griezmann, Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe, with Olivier Giroud, Kingsley coman and Wissam Ben Yedder in the squad.
France top Group F with four points, one ahead of Portugal and Germany and three above Hungary. They will take on Portugal in the last round of group games on Wednesday.
