Camavinga has earned 29 France caps and was selected for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and Euro 2024 in Germany.
Explaining the decision to leave Camavinga out, boss Deschamps said: “His season, of course.
“A few injuries as well. And the competition, which is very, very tough. I’m not questioning his potential or what he’s capable of.
“But he’s entitled to be angry with me, I understand that.”
Deschamps, 57, will step down as France boss after the World Cup following 14 years at the helm.
