Benzema, 23, picked up the injury in Tuesday's Champions League victory over Ajax and missed Real Madrid's 4-0 win over Espanyol this Sunday.
"The nature of the injury means we couldn't have him for the two matches. He must return to Real Madrid tonight," France coach Laurent Blanc told reporters on Monday but said he did not know if he would call up a replac ement.
France have two games left before the final Euro 2012 places are announced and lead Group D by a point from Bosnia-Herzegovina.
