In preparation for this month's European Championship 2024 qualifiers against Holland and Ireland, Deschamps has named his first lineup since the World Cup.
According to information, France will play Holland on Friday before traveling to Dublin the following Monday to play Ireland.
The 22-year-old receives his first call-up to the French national team at this point in his career.
Fofana, who may have helped France compete in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, was ruled out due to ailments.
It's been said that the former defender for Leicester City has had fitness issues ever since he joined Chelsea.
Fofana has only played six League games for Chelsea so far this season.
The French teenager was acquired by the Blues from Leicester City at the beginning of the season for a reputed £75 million.
Chelsea, Wesley Fofana's club, responded to the player's most recent accomplishment in the meanwhile.
Chelsea posted a picture of Fofana along with the remark, "Wesley Fofana has been named in a senior France international squad for the first time!. Congratulations,
@Wesley_Fofanaa!"
