Arsenal target M'Vila to miss France's meeting with England

France midfielder Yann M'Vila looks set to miss his country's Euro2012 opener against England.

The Rennes ace, who is being linked with a summer move to Arsenal, injured his ankle in Les Bleus' friendly win over Serbia on May 31 but is in doubt for Monday's Group D clash in Donetsk.

"We are doing our best to make him fit," France team doctor Fabrice Bryan told RMC. "His sprained ankle is healing very quickly and in a spectacular way.

"But right now we are not optimistic about his involvement in the match against England."
