Hernandez, who joined PSG from Bayern Munich, was included in a 23-man list by France coach Didier Deschamps.
France will resume its Euro 2024 qualifying campaign against Ireland at Parc des Princes on Sept. 7. The 2018 World Cup champions then play a friendly at Germany on Sept. 12.
With four wins in as many matches, France is in first place in Group B with a six-point lead over Greece.
Hernandez, who has 33 international appearances under his belt, has not played with France since he ruptured the ACL in his right knee eight minutes into the national team's opening game against Australia at last year's World Cup.
