Olympique Lyonnais and France striker Karim Benzema will be sidelined for France's friendly at home to England on Wednesday after being replaced 35 minutes into the Ligue 1 champions' 4-2 home win against Paris Saint-Germain FC with a sprained knee.

The league's top goalscorer will undergo further tests but initial diagnoses from the club's medical staff forecast a two-week absence. Juventus striker David Trezeguet takes his place in France's squad.
