David Trezeguet and Gael Clichy have been left out of the provisional France squad for Euro 2008.

France coach Raymond Domenech has named his 30-man squad for next month's finals in Austria and Switzerland with the deadline for the final 23-man squad on 28th May.

Juventus hit-man Trezeguet has been omitted after a much-publicised bust-up with Domenech last year.

Clichy's absence is a blow for the defender following the Arsenal man's impressive season with the Gunners, but Emirates team-mate William Gallas does make the squad.

Milan-bound Mathieu Flamini is included in the squad along with Portsmouth's FA Cup winner Lassana Diarra.

Manchester United star Patrice Evra makes the 30-man squad, while Chelsea trio Claude Makelele, Florent Malouda and Nicolas Anelka are also included.

Barcelona hit-man Thierry Henry will lead the attack, while St Etienne's Bafetimbi Gomis is surprise name in the squad after earning his first call-up.
