Malouda fit to make France return

Malouda is fit again after being ruled out of France's match with Switzerland.

SPECIAL REPORT

HAMELIN, Germany -- Midfielder Florent Malouda is fit to play France's second World Cup Group G match against South Korea on Sunday, coach Raymond Domenech has said.

"He (Malouda) has now resumed normal training and can do what the others do, which means he can play," said Domenech, who said all players in his 23-strong squad were fit.

Malouda was ruled out of France's opening match, a 0-0 draw with Switzerland, for an unknown reason.

Domenech is refusing to make medical information about the players available to the media.

The Lyon midfielder was back in action on Wednesday, playing a friendly with the squad's reserves.

Malouda had started France's three warm-up games. Providing he stays fit, he should start the match against South Korea in Leipzig.
