The French federation said in a statement on Friday that Deschamps was operated on earlier this week after suffering back pain for several weeks. France will instead be represented by assistant coach Guy Stephan.
"It was not a light-hearted decision that I decided not to go to the draw,” Deschamps was quoted as saying in the statement. "It's always a pleasant moment, during which I really enjoy chatting with my counterparts. But wisdom dictated a few days' rest."
