This is probably not the best time to do without some of your lifeblood. Christophe Galtier will however have no choice this Sunday (1 p.m.) for the reception of Lille and will have to give up on the half of the defense which faced Bayern Munich on Wednesday evening. Achraf Hakimi’s package, forced to remain in care due to discomfort in the left hamstrings, has indeed been added to that of Marquinhos.
The Parisian captain, who had finished the match against the Bavarians (0-1) with pain in his left thigh, remained indoors Friday morning during collective training. The last point made this Saturday morning resulted in the resting of the Brazilian who, according to Christophe Galtier, had “grit his teeth to finish” the match against Bayern. In delicacy with his left thigh, “Marquinhos will resume collective training next week,” said the club. If Nordi Mukiele, injured, is still absent, the Parisian coach can however count on Presnel Kimpembe and Timothée Pembele to consolidate his rearguard.
He will also have, for the second time only since the return of the World Cup in Qatar, the possibility of aligning the MNM at kick-off. Between recovery phases, injuries or suspensions, the Mbappé – Neymar – Messi trio has only started one meeting together in the last twelve games. It was against Reims on January 29 (1-1).
