With the second leg of their Champions League semi-final against Arsenal looming, PSG will be able to count on Lucas Hernandez. The 29-year-old French defender suffered only back pain during the match against Strasbourg, but is expected to resume training as normal on Monday. On the other hand, uncertainty surrounds Lee Kang-in, the 24-year-old South Korean winger who suffered a shin injury and was substituted at half-time in Strasbourg, but this is just a blow. The Parisian staff will be monitoring his progress over the next forty-eight hours to see if he can be included in the squad. This information is reported by L’Équipe.
