Soccer player Hugo Ekitike, who plays for Liverpool and represents the French national team, will miss the World Cup due to a serious Achilles tendon injury sustained during yesterday's match against PSG in the Champions League. France coach Didier Deschamps confirmed: "Hugo has suffered a serious injury. Unfortunately, the severity of his injury will prevent him from finishing the season with Liverpool and participating in the World Cup." The World Cup will be held in June and July in Mexico, Canada and the United States.
