Two days before PSG’s meeting in Milan in the Champions League, Luis Enrique’s starting lineup is taking shape, with the usual Randal Kolo Muani-Gonçalo Ramos duel and the possible tenure of Lee Kang-In.

Luis Enrique’s PSG has been constantly evolving since the start of the season and the Spanish coach may have found a new weapon. Recruited for 22 million euros, Lee Kang-In returned in great form from the Asian Games which he won with the South Korean U23 team, opening his goal counter with the Rouge et Bleu against AC Milan , before being a decisive passer in Brest (2-3) and scoring the first goal for the Parisians against Montpellier (3-0) on Friday.

The 22-year-old left-handed dribbler could thus be started for the second meeting against the Rossoneri, next Tuesday at San Siro, as part of the 4th day of the Champions League, as indicated The Parisian this Sunday. He would occupy the left wing of the 4-2-4 in the offensive phase, as Vitinha usually does, but by bringing more percussion with the ball to his feet, and would fall back to the left of the midfield like the Portuguese (to make up for the inactivity of Kylian Mbappé without a ball).

The other uncertainty is not new: Luis Enrique can choose between Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos for the number 9 position. Both players have not scored in the last two league matches, but the center forward Portuguese was more valuable in the game in Brest than “RKM” on Friday against the Héraultais. Before that, the French international scored against the Milanese at the Parc des Princes, but without being brilliant.

Luis Enrique will provide more information on the state of his squad during his match-day press conference on Monday at 5:15 p.m. Danilo Pereira (thigh) and Keylor Navas (back) did not take part in Sunday’s training session at the PSG Campus, while Marco Asensio resumed with his teammates but could, according to The Parisianstay warm, at home, before returning for the trip to Reims on Saturday.

Probable composition of PSG according to The Parisian: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos, Skriniar, Hernandez – Zaire-Emery, Ugarte – Dembélé, Randal Kolo Muani, Mbappé, Kang-in Lee.
