Nantes-PSG: Icardi and Paredes still absent

PSG will travel to Nantes this Saturday (9 p.m.) without five of its executives.

Thomas Tuchel indicated these absences this Friday at a press conference: Mauro Icardi (knee), Leandro Paredes (thigh), Julian Draxler (ischios), Marco Verratti (thigh) and Neymar (adductors) will not make the trip to Loire-Atlantique on the occasion of the ninth day of Ligue 1.

The two Argentines, Icardi and Paredes, are "close" to resuming collective training but are still too close to play a meeting with the first team.

“We have to be careful,” warned the German coach.

There is hope that they will find their teammates again for Matchday 3 of the Champions League next Wednesday in Leipzig.

Verratti is due to resume next week

Speaking of Neymar, Tuchel has confirmed that the Brazilian will be out at least until the international break, which begins on November 9.

It remains to be seen whether the star will join his selection or stay in Paris.

This truce should mark the return of Julian Draxler.

Finally, Marco Verratti is due to resume training during the next week.

But the Italian midfielder should be too fair for the game in Leipzig.
