On the move this Saturday in Strasbourg, on behalf of the 37th day (21 hours), PSG needs a single point to become champions of France 2023. Marquinhos will not participate. The captain "remains in care for a slight injury of the right adductor," the club said in a medical statement. He did not train on Friday. If Christophe Galtier wants to keep his three-man defence, with Sergio Ramos and Danilo Pereira, El Chadaille Bitshiabu could replace him numerically.
In the middle, as expected, Fabian Ruiz will not be there and his season is probably over. The Spanish midfielder suffers from "a right adductor injury" and must observe 10 days of treatment, which de facto seems to condemn his presence against Clermont on June 3 at the Parc des Princes for the last match of the season. The timing is tight. Vitinha will be the starter in his place at the Meinau stadium.
In front, Hugo Ekitike, another injured in Auxerre like Ruiz, is not sufficiently recovered from his discomfort "in the right hamstring". To keep its offensive animation, Paris could revive Carlos Soler, behind the pair of strikers Leo Messi - Kylian Mbappé. Marquinhos, Ruiz, Ekitike add to the known forfeits of Presnel Kimpembe, Neymar, Nordi Mukiele, Nuno Mendes and the suspension of Achraf Hakimi. With six points ahead of Lens, two games to play and a much higher goal difference, the title can no longer escape PSG this Saturday or next, June 3.
