Although Eduardo Camavinga was left out of France’s World Cup squad, he was present when Les Bleus arrived at their base in Masachusetts and attended a short course at Harvard University.
Midfielder Camavinga came off the bench to play 49 minutes of the last World Cup final as France lost to Argentina on penalties.
He made the last of his 29 appearances for France in a friendly in March.
Yet at the age of 23 he was left out by coach Didier Deschamps, this time after largely ending Real Madrid’s chaotic season on the bench.
He used the free time to take an entertainment and sports course at Harvard Business School.
“A few days of learning, listening and growing,” he posted on Instagram on Saturday, beneath a photo of him at Harvard.
The university in Cambridge, a suburb of Boston, is located five miles from the campus of Bentley University in Waltham, which the France team uses as its World Cup base.
Les Bleus arrived during the week while Camavinga was studying, and will play their opening World Cup match against Senegal on June 16.
