Christophe Galtier has selected a group of 20 players for the trip to Marseille on Sunday (8:45 p.m.).

We knew that PSG would be deprived of Neymar Jr and Renato Sanches on Sunday (8:45 p.m.), in Marseille. The question arose on the other hand for Achraf Hakimi, out since the defeat against Bayern (0-1) in the Champions League. “Achraf did part of the session today (Friday), he will do the whole session tomorrow (Saturday) and we will make a decision“, had indicated Christophe Galtier in a press conference, after a session carried out in front of … 33,000 spectators. We must believe that the test was not conclusive since the 24-year-old Moroccan side does not appear in the Parisian group (20 players) for this closing match of the 25th round of the French championship.

Good news ? Announcement “very close to a starting placeby his trainer, Nordi Mukiele is back. The former Montpellier player, however, has not played since mid-January and an injury picked up during the defeat to Rennes (3-1). This is why Galtier took the lead and did “work Warren (Zaire-Emery) on the right side to compensate for possible absences. But his position is midfield, that’s where he performs best.“The titi may have to help out on the right if Christophe Galtier opts for a three-man defense. Otherwise, it is the young (20 years old) side Timothée Pembélé, loaned to Bordeaux last year, who would have the favor of the forecasts to start on the right.
