Toulouse FC will be without left-back Jérémy Mathieu for the start of their UEFA Cup campaign after he picked up a foot injury.

European absence
The 23-year-old former France Under-21 international will miss Toulouse's first-round encounter against PFC CSKA Sofia on 20 September and 4 October after sustaining the problem in training and is likely to be sidelined for up to two months. The defender, who has made 71 Ligue 1 appearances for his club, was called into the France squad for the first time earlier in August for the friendly match against Slovakia.
