Bordeaux have confirmed that Mathieu Debuchy will be sidelined for around three weeks with a muscular injury.
The 30-year-old, who joined Les Girondins on a six-month loan deal from Arsenal in January, sustained the complaint during the recent 0-0 draw with Nice.
"Tests have revealed a muscular injury. The France international will be unavailable for a period of between two and three weeks," read a statement on the club's official website.
The defender is now likely to sit out France's upcoming friendly encounters against the Netherlands and Russia.
