While he spares Marquinhos, on the bench, the German coach starts the Portuguese international behind this Saturday, in Nantes (9 pm, live commented), during the ninth day of Ligue 1. He will be associated with Abdou Diallo, Presnel Kimpembe is also spared.
Ditto for Layvin Kurzawa.
With the absences of several players in the offensive sector, including Neymar, Paris will start with a Sarabia-Kean-Mbappé trio in front.
Changes also in Nantes, notably with a Castelletto-Abeid hinge.
