This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain (1st in Ligue 1) take on Stade Briochin (11th) at Roazhon Park in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France 2024-2025 (kick-off 9.10pm, broadcast on beIN SPORTS and France 3). On the eve of the match, Le Parisien takes a look at Warren Zaïre-Emery, 18, and Fabian Ruiz, 28. And there’s some positive news ahead of the Champions League Round of 8 first leg against Liverpool on Wednesday March 5 (return leg on March 11).
“Zaïre-Emery feeling better every day
Positive progress, but he won’t be back against Saint-Brieuc!
Paris optimistic he’ll be in the squad against Liverpool
His presence against Lille will depend on how he feels this week”
“The latest news is reassuring for Fabian Ruiz, who was able to take part in field exercises on Monday.
He should be in the squad for the French Cup 1/4!”
Reassuring news about Ruiz: he took a bad knock, but it never seemed too serious. He could be rested for the Coupe de France, so as not to take any risks, even if he has “recovered”. PSG should rotate.
As for Zaïre-Emery, who has been absent since the match against Stuttgart, no risks will be taken. His return is imminent, so there’s no point in rushing things. His return against Lille this weekend could be a good way of grabbing a few minutes ahead of next week’s clash with Liverpool. He could at least be a substitute, which is always a plus. At the very least, Ruiz should be ready, barring any further worries between now and then.
