This Friday, Paris Saint-Germain (1st) take on Rennes (8th) at the Parc des Princes for Matchday 6 of Ligue 1 2024-2025 (kick-off 9pm, broadcast on beIN SPORTS). With 2 days to go before the match, L’Equipe takes a look at 3 players who were expected to be out of action, but will probably be. There is, however, some good news about Presnel Kimpembe (29-year-old central defender).
“This Wednesday, Luis Enrique was unable to count on Désiré Doué (ankle), Marco Asensio (thigh) and Vitinha. Already on Tuesday, the three men were unable to take part in the session with their partners.
The good news comes from Presnel Kimpembe, who is continuing his individual training sessions and is expected to return to full training in October.”
With just one training session left, it would be very surprising if today’s absentees could be ready to face Rennes. The good news is that if they could be with the group tomorrow, we’d hope they’d be present against Arsenal on Tuesday (Matchday 2 of the Champions League).
For the time being, the squad is likely to be further depleted. Above all, we hope that the infirmary will stop filling up at almost every match.
As for Kimpembe, perhaps he’s finally at the end of the tunnel. But we’ve already seen several times that this can be postponed.
