As the Metz poster for the twenty-first day of Ligue 1 approaches, during which FC Metz will face LOSC, Benoît Tavenot revealed the composition of his group. Cheikh Sabaly, transferred to Vancouver, is absent.
The twenty-first day of Ligue 1 opens this Friday (8:45 p.m.) with a duel between LOSC (5th, 32 pts) and FC Metz (18th, 12 pts). The first leg, which took place on October 26 at the Decathlon Arena – Stade Pierre-Mauroy, was largely won by the Mastiffs (6-1).
The Metz group is somewhat upset by the transfer market since recruits Bouna Sarr, Giorgi Kvilitaia and Lucas Michal have already been called up. Conversely, Cheikh Sabaly, who has just been transferred to Major League Soccer, in Vancouver, is obviously missing.
