PSG Team News
Paris Saint-Germain remain without João Neves, who continues to serve a two-game suspension following his red card in last month’s Club World Cup final.
Against Tottenham in midweek, youngsters Warren Zaïre-Emery and Bradley Barcola struggled to impose themselves, which could prompt Lee Kang-in and Fabián Ruiz to be promoted into the starting XI after impressing off the bench.
Meanwhile, Gianluigi Donnarumma’s future at the club looks to be over, meaning new signing Lucas Chevalier — recruited from Lille — is set to retain his place in goal after debuting on Wednesday.
Nantes Team News
Nantes are set to begin the season without last year’s top scorer Matthis Abline (11 goals), who was omitted from their final pre-season friendly amid ongoing speculation about a departure.
New loan arrival Mayckel Lahdo from AZ Alkmaar is also unlikely to feature, as the Swedish forward is sidelined with a thigh problem.
The Canaries have been one of Ligue 1’s busier sides in the market, bringing in nine new players so far this summer, reinvesting part of the £30m earned from the sales of Nathan Zézé, Douglas Augusto and Jean-Charles Castelletto.
