Monaco predicted XI v Brest: Denis Zakaria to return, Folarin Balogun out | OneFootball

AS Monaco have received multiple boosts ahead of the return of Ligue 1 action. Captain Denis Zakaria has returned, as has Mohammed Salisu, whilst, despite concerns over minor injuries, Maghnes Akliouche and Aleksandr Golovin are both fit to take part against Stade Brestois on Friday night.

There are, however, absences for Monaco. Lamine Camara is suspended, meaning that Soungoutou Magassa, despite Zakaria’s return, looks likely to retain his place in the midfield. Folarin Balogun also remains out, although he has now made a full return to first-team training. Adi Hutter says that the USMNT striker can be available in the “short term” but without any specifics.

Upon his return from international duty, Krépin Diatta was found to have suffered an adductor injury and so he will miss the match against Brest too.

Monaco likely line-up v Brest

Radoslaw Majecki; Caio Henrique, Thilo Kehrer, Wilfried Singo, Vanderson; Soungoutou Magassa, Denis Zakaria; Eliesse Ben Seghir, Aleksandr Golovin, Maghnes Akliouche; Breel Embolo.
