Does this page list confirmed France injuries?

Yes. It lists injury notes only when a reliable team, federation, club, FIFA or article source supports the update. Blank or zero-count sections mean no verified injury list is connected yet.

Are return dates final?

No. Return dates can change after medical checks, training sessions and matchday squad decisions. TBC means no confirmed return window is available.
