William Saliba could miss World Cup after Arsenal final

William Saliba (25) played the full 120 minutes of Saturday's UEFA Champions League final as Arsenal lost to reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain on penalties. The defeat raises doubts over Saliba's participation in the upcoming World Cup.

Saliba, a French defender, featured for Arsenal throughout the campaign and completed both regular time and extra time in the final. His 25-year-old status and defensive role were highlighted by his uninterrupted presence on the pitch.

Paris Saint-Germain entered the match as the defending champions and secured victory via a penalty shootout after extra time. Arsenal's loss concluded a season that saw Saliba as a regular starter.

The possibility of Saliba missing the World Cup leaves the French national team selection in a state of uncertainty. His fitness and availability will be closely monitored ahead of the tournament.
