PSG’s Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé out of Nice tie | OneFootball

Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé both missed training on Tuesday, ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s visit to OGC Nice on Wednesday night. Neither has been included in the matchday squad.

Mbappé missed the session with hamstring discomfort, whilst Dembélé did gym work, rather than training with the first team after suffering a knock. Both could therefore be rested in PSG’s penultimate game of the season. Luis Enrique decided not to take any risks with a Coupe de France final against Olympique Lyonnais coming up later this month. Marco Asensio and Randal Kolo Muani could take their places in the starting XI.

Nuno Mendes, Achraf Hakimi and Randal Kolo Muani have also been left out of the matchday squad by Luis Enrique with a match against FC Metz coming up on Sunday.

PSG are expected to start a stronger XI than the one that slumped to a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Toulouse FC on Sunday. As a result, players such as Gianluigi Donnarumma and Vitinha could make their returns.
