NO HENRY

Trezeguet has scored 31 goals from 59 internationals since January 1998 and he is crucial to their chances as France will be without Henry, the match-winner in Dublin last month.

Henry is nursing a recurrent groin injury and will not be fit until the middle of October according to his Arsenal club manager Arsene Wenger.

Henry will be replaced by AJ Auxerre striker Peguy Luyindula who last played for France in the 2-0 away victory over Cyprus in October 2004.

Squad:

Goalkeepers: Gregory Coupet (Olympique Lyon), Mickael Landreau (Nantes)

Defenders: Jean-Alain Boumsong (Newcastle United), William Gallas (Chelsea), Gael Givet (Monaco), Anthony Reveillere (Olympique Lyon), Willy Sagnol (Bayern Munich), Sebastien Squillaci (Monaco), Lilian Thuram (Juventus), Jonathan Zebina (Juventus)

Midfielders: Vikash Dhorasoo (Paris St Germain), Alou Diarra (Racing Lens), Claude Makelele (Chelsea), Florent Malouda (Olympique Lyon), Patrick Vieira (Juventus), Zinedine Zidane (Real Madrid)

Forwards: Djibril Cisse (Liverpool), Ludovic Giuly (Barcelona), Sidney Govou (Olympique Lyon), Peguy Luyindula (Auxerre), David Trezeguet (Juventus), Sylvain Wiltord (Olympique Lyon).
