In ten days, Paris Saint-Germain will play their long-awaited first round of 16 against Real Sociedad. A match that the Parisians are preparing for at length, they who clearly dominate the French Championship ahead of OGC Nice. And while the end of the Parisian season is disrupted by the future of Kylian Mbappé, Real Sociedad also has other, much more annoying problems since the club will present itself at the Parc des Princes in a delicate position.

Indeed, Real Sociedad is facing an avalanche of injuries. Earlier in the month, the Basque club communicated on the injury of Kieran Tierney (26 years old), who was added to the infirmary, alongside Aihen Muñoz (26 years old), for a long period . They are both withdrawn for the European meeting against PSG. But that’s not all, since attacking midfielder Arsen Zakharyan (20 years old) and defender Robin Le Normand were affected and started the match against Girona on the bench on Saturday evening (0-0).

Three new big packages for Real Sociedad
Decimated, the Basques were not at the end of their surprises during the trip to the surprising second place in Liga. Against the Catalan club, Imanol Alguacil first saw the experienced Álvaro Odriozola leave in the third minute of play, before rookie Sheraldo Becker left his team shortly after returning from the locker room (51st). To make matters worse, captain Mikel Oyarzabal limped out after being hit in the knee at the very end of the match (90th).

If Real recorded the arrival of Javi Galán (29) on loan this winter to compensate for these problems, they also hope to see Hamari Traoré and Takefusa Kubo quickly return to form, ten days before the deadline against PSG. After the eliminations of Mali at the African Cup of Nations and Japan at the Asian Cup on Saturday, both players should quickly be available. Good news for the San-Sebastian team, which remains in 6th place in the ranking despite its avalanche of injuries.
