France will meet Brazil in a friendly in March, according to French Football Federation chief Noel Le Graet.

Speaking after France's 1-1 friendly draw with Albania in Rennes, Le Graet said an agreement with Brazil's federation had already been made, reports Xinhua.

"There will be a match against Brazil in Paris, at the Stade de France, in March," Le Graet was quoted saying by Brazilian daily Folha de S.Paulo Saturday.

A specific date was not given for the fixture but it is believed it will be within days of France's clash with Denmark March 29.

The Brazilian federation is yet to officially confirm the match.

The teams last met in friendly before the 2013 Confederation Cup, Brazil winning 3-0 in Porto Alegre.
