In the Parisian camp as in that of the Merlus, several packages are to be expected for the first match of the 2023-2024 season at the Parc des Princes.
Saturday evening, at 9 p.m., PSG will officially start its season, after a rather mixed Asian tour in terms of results. The capital club will host FC Lorient at the Parc des Princes on the first day of Ligue 1. In both camps, players will be missing, for various reasons.
For his first match in Ligue 1, Luis Enrique will not be able to count on three injured defenders: Nuno Mendes, Presnel Kimpembe and Nordi Mukiele. In midfield, it is internationals who appear in the loft who will not be summoned by the 53-year-old Spanish technician: Leandro Paredes, Georginio Wijnaldum and Julian Draxler.
On the other hand, a big question mark surrounds the presence of Marco Verratti. The Italian international was absent from collective training on Tuesday, just like Neymar. These two players, who are likely to be transferred before the end of the summer transfer window, would have been affected by a virus.
On the Lorient side, coach Régis Le Bris will have to do without the services of the very media rookie Benjamin Mendy. He will also have to compose without Ayman Kari, Aiyegun Tosin, Igor Silva and Quentin Boisgard.
