Thomas Tuchel was already pessimistic for the participation of Juan Bernat in the final of the Coupe de France, Friday (9 p.m.) against Saint-Etienne. His package is now almost complete, with his new absence in a friendly match, this Tuesday evening against Celtic Glasgow (7 p.m., BeIN Sports 1). The Spanish left side, who complained of muscle discomfort in a calf, is still in the recovery phase and the staff favored the continuation of his work at the Camp des Loges to the intensity of a meeting.
Abdou Diallo, operated on the back in early June and who continues to work individually, is also absent and "in recovery", according to information provided by PSG. The defender will not participate in the two national cup finals and is continuing his race against the clock towards the Champions League.
The rest of the group is complete and Layvin Kurzawa could start the match against the Scots, after two starts by Mitchel Bakker against Le Havre (9-0) and Waasland-Beveren (7-0).
Thomas Tuchel called "only" three goalkeepers for the match (Navas, Rico and Bulka) in a very large group of 25 players. Unlike the last friendly match, the match will last 90 minutes. The capacity of the stadium is limited to 5,000 spectators and the behavior of the ultras will be particularly observed.
Thiago Silva, who will play his last match at the Parc des Princes in front of the public (the friendly of August 5 will be behind closed doors) appears well in the group, just like the young people integrated in the preparation (Pembele, Ruiz, Kalimuendo).
THE PSG GROUP
Navas, Rico, Bulka - Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Kehrer, Kurzawa, Mbe Soh, Bakker, Dagba, Pembele - Paredes, Gueye, Draxler, Herrera, Verratti, Sarabia, Ruiz - Choupo-Moting, Neymar, Di Maria, Icardi , Kalimuendo, Mbappé.
