This is the great recovery for the Champions League, and Paris Saint-Germain receives the Atalanta Bergame Wednesday evening at the Parc des Princes. The capital's club will start defense of its trophy, but it will not be complete for this first day.

Wounded with the French team, Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué, two of the heroes of the final against Inter Milan, will miss the call. And we are still waiting for news of the three players released on injury this Sunday against Lens (2-0), KHVICHA KVARETSKHELIA, KANG-IN LEE and Lucas Beraldo.

On the Italian side, he will also lack the world. We don't only think of the two former Ligue 1 players, Sead Kolasinac and Mitchell Bakker, but also of Ademola Lookman. The hero of the final of the Europa League 2024 wanted to leave this summer, but he is still there and does not play. His coach should not reintegrate him into the group by Wednesday.

PSG-Atalanta, probably without lookman

“I don't think he (lookman) will be there in Paris,
told Ivan Juric to the microphone of Dazn, in remarks relayed by the team. The situation is unpleasant, really not good. He gave so much to Atalanta, and the Atalanta gave him so much. We need ready players, who want to progress and defend our colors well. We will see. »»

In its absence, the Atalanta could start with Nikola Krstovic, the former Lecce scorer in tip. The latter was supported this Sunday against Lecce (4-1) by Charles de Ketelaere and by former Rennais Kamaldeen Sulemana. Touched with a knee, Gianluca Scamacca was still absent.
