European week for AS Monaco. This Wednesday, the Principality club will challenge PSg at the Parc des Princes for the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League. The Monegasques are one goal behind when entering this second round.
And for this poster, Maghnes Akliouche should be present. Absent during the victorious tripAS Monaco on the lawn of
RC Lens (3-2) this Saturday, the 23-year-old winger was spared due to hip discomfort.
According to
The Teamthe Monegasque trained normally this Sunday morning at the La Turbie training center. Barring a relapse, the French international (5 caps) should therefore hold his place on Wednesday at the Parc des Princes for the return play-off of the Champions League.
An injury already dragged from Nantes
Hit during the victory against the
FC Nantes (3-1) ten days ago, Akliouche had already gritted his teeth to participate in the first leg against PSG, which ended in a defeat (3-2). Despite the pain, he held his position, proof of his importance in the Monegasque system.
