A big absence in Monaco against PSG

While the resumption of Ligue 1 will be marked by the summit duel between PSG and Monaco, Youssouf Fofana will not be there.

Monaco had a complicated evening in Le Havre on Saturday. Forced into a draw (0-0), which made it lose two precious points in the race for first places, the Principality club also saw Youssouf Fofana receive a yellow card at the very end of the match.

A warning with serious consequences since it led to him being suspended for the next ASM match, in Paris, after the international break. And the Monegasque camp could have had some regrets since the French midfielder was warned for having insistently asked the referee to check if the ball was indeed on the penalty spot when Samuel Grandsir was preparing to take his penalty in the additional time.

“It wasn’t his best idea, so he’s suspended for Paris,” regretted the coach, Adi Hütter.
