Still feeling discomfort in his thigh, Dimitri Payet will not be traveling from OM to Angers for the 7th day of Ligue 1, this Wednesday (9 p.m.).
OM have unveiled their group for the 7th day of Ligue 1, during which they will travel to Angers on Wednesday (9 p.m.). Dimitri Payet, a fit man at the start of the season, is not one of them: the attacking midfielder still feels discomfort in his thigh and Jorge Sampaoli did not want to take risks because of the sequence of matches.
This pain has already caused the Reunionese to miss the match in Monaco on September 11, where he was also spared by his coach, Jorge Sampaoli. However, he had made his return for the reception of Rennes (2-0), this Sunday, which he had played in full and during which he had worn the captain’s armband.
Milik not back yet
Among the other notable absences, the Phocéens will have to do without central defender Alvaro Gonzalez, who will serve his second game of suspension after the incidents which occurred during the derby of the Côte d’Azur against Nice. Knee injury for several months, striker Arkadiusz Milik resumed training, but was deemed too fair by the staff.
“Regarding Milik, the doctor told me that he is better and that he is close to making his return but that in the short term, there was still a risk in making him play, confirmed Sampaoli on Tuesday at a conference. We thought he would play against Angers but that won’t be the case. We hope he can come back against Lens on Sunday. I don’t know if he will be able to have a few minutes. ” If he is not on his feet to face the Blood and Gold, he may be for the reception of Galatasaray next Thursday.
The OM group:
Mandanda, Ngapandouetnbu, P.Lopez – Amavi, Caleta-Car, Balerdi, Saliba, Lirola, Peres – Gerson, P.Gueye, Kamara, Guendouzi, Rongier, Harit, Targhalline – Luis Henrique, De la Fuente, Dieng, Under, Ben Seghir
