France are facing a fly-half crisis ahead of their upcoming clash with the Springboks after star playmaker Romain Ntamack sustained an injury during the team's match against Fiji on November 8, 2026.
Ntamack, a key figure in France's backline, was forced off in the fixture against Fiji, leaving the coaching staff with a significant selection headache for the highly anticipated test against South Africa.
The extent of the injury has not yet been disclosed, but the loss of Ntamack's creativity and goal-kicking ability would be a major blow to France's hopes of defeating the world champions.
