It is an absence which should not handicap PSG too much, but which remains to be noted.
Keylor Navas, Paris Saint-Germain's number 2 goalkeeper this season behind the Italian Gianluigi Donnarumma, is not part of the group announced by the capital club this Saturday and which will face Losc on Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.).

This is the only major absence to be deplored in the Parisian group, which explains that the player “came out of training today for lower back pain”.
“He will remain in care at the Training Center and a new point will be made in 48 hours”, explains PSG again.
For his reunion with Losc, Christophe Galtier called on a group of 21 players.
Alexandre Letellier replaces Keylor Navas numerically, as goalkeeper.
All the major players in the group are also there, from Verratti to Mbappé via Messi, Neymar, Ramos, Kimpembe, Marquinhos or Renato Sanches, who will also find his former club.
The absence of Keylor Navas has, a priori, nothing to do with an imminent transfer of the player.
Pending departure for several days, the Costa Rican is the subject of a pronounced interest by the club of Naples, in Italy.
In search of a new goalkeeper after the departure of David Ospina, the Neapolitans have targeted the former Real Madrid goalkeeper, relegated to the Parisian hierarchy after a season sharing the poster with Gianluigi Donnarumma, who played in their the first three games of the season in full.
Navas is, however, one of the players who can still leave PSG by the end of the transfer window.
