This Thursday, Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique de Marseille face off in Kuwait for the 2025 Trophée des Champions (kick-off at 7 pm French time, CET). OM will be weakened by the suspensions of Arthur Vermeeren (20-year-old midfielder) and Bilal Nadir (22-year-old midfielder).

A look at our cards after our defeat against Nantes

56′ Nadir
Vermeeren and Nadir will be suspended for the Trophée des Champions match against Paris Saint-Germain.”
Indeed, both Marseille players received red cards this Sunday against FC Nantes, during a 2-0 defeat in the 17th round of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season. This result is a blow to their European qualification hopes, and the suspensions will undoubtedly be a concern when facing PSG.
Adding to this is the absence of Nayef Aguerd, the 29-year-old defender who is at the Africa Cup of Nations with Morocco (as is Achraf Hakimi for PSG). Not to mention that Amine Gouiri (the 25-year-old striker) is only just returning from a long injury. He only played 20 minutes against Nantes this Sunday.
