Neymar will therefore not be the only one to fail at Beaujoire on Saturday evening on the occasion of the 9th day of Ligue 1. The Brazilian, who has never set foot on Nantes since his arrival in Paris in 2017, has this once again was forced to forfeit the trip to Loire-Atlantique.
Injured in the adductors since the trip to Basaksehir on Wednesday, the Parisian playmaker will be absent from the field at least until the international break on November 9.
Arrived this summer from AS Roma, Alessandro Florenzi will also have to wait before getting to know the Nantes enclosure.
The right side was thus left to rest in the capital.
Already deprived of Juan Bernat (knee), Mauro Icardi (knee), Leandro Paredes (thigh), Marco Verratti (thigh), Julian Draxler (ischios) and Angel Di Maria (suspended), Thomas Tuchel should once again align an eleven of unprecedented departure facing the Canaries.
The German technician can nevertheless count on the return on the national scene of Layvin Kurzawa, who served his six games of suspension.
He will also have a little more choice in defense where the return of Thilo Kehrer, although out of form, offers him an additional rotation solution.
In this group of 20 players where young Randriamamy, Pembélé, Fadiga and Ruiz are still invited to make up the number, Thomas Tuchel will also be able to rely on the tandem Kylian Mbappé-Moise Kean, who made the difference Wednesday in Turkey in the League champions.
The Parisian group
: Navas, Rico, Randriamamy - Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Kehrer, Diallo, Kurzawa, Dagba, Bakker, Pembélé - Gueye, Pereira, Herrera, Rafinha, Fadiga, Ruiz - Kean, Mbappé, Sarabia.
