Tuesday, at 9 p.m., Paris Saint-Germain will play its most important match since the start of the season, on the sixth day of the Champions League. The capital club will be obliged to win in Austria, against RB Salzburg. If this is not the case, qualification for the play-offs of the competition will be seriously compromised.
For this crucial match, Luis Enrique called a group of 22 players. Lucas Hernandez is one of them. A first for the French international, seven months after his rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during the Champions League semi-final against Borussia Dortmund. On the other hand, the Spanish technician did not call up Presnel Kimpembe, who nevertheless made his return to collective training at the PSG Campus on October 18.
The squad for Salzburg-PSG:
Goalkeepers: Donnarumma, Safonov, Tenas
Defenders: Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Hernandez, Beraldo, Skriniar, Mendes, Zague
Midfield: Ruiz, Neves, Vitinha, Zaire-Emery, Doué
Forwards: Barcola, Asensio, Kolo Muani, Lee, Ramos, Mbaye
Lucas Hernandez is a regular in the infirmary. In 2019, he suffered a ligament distortion in his knee. During his time at Bayern Munich between 2019 and 2023, he only played 107 matches, an average of 27 matches per season.
