The Sunderland full-back picked up an injury during the clash with Senegal (1-1) and was seen limping out of the stadium after the match.
The French tactician broke the news in his pre-match press conference: “Arthur Masuaku underwent an MRI on Sunday. He has a sprain, which rules him out of the match against Botswana. The tests showed he suffered a minor ankle sprain. He will miss the game,” he revealed.
With 4 points on the board, DR Congo currently sit second in the group, trailing Senegal only on goal difference.
