PSG Confirms Second Player Out for Lorient Match

Paris Saint-Germain has confirmed the absence of two key players for their upcoming match against FC Lorient. Following an earlier announcement about Achraf Hakimi’s rest, the club has now officially ruled out Fabian Ruiz due to ongoing recovery.

Updates on Player Participation for Lorient Match

Fabian Ruiz has recently rejoined training with the PSG squad, but he is not yet fit to compete. Despite being back with the team, Ruiz is still in the recovery phase, which means he will miss the Lorient match.

Medical Report Overview

  • Fabian Ruiz: Currently in recovery.
  • Achraf Hakimi: Resting since Sunday; expected to resume training on Thursday.

The club’s medical analysis indicates that Ruiz is working towards full fitness. Nevertheless, his current condition makes him unavailable for the match against Lorient. He is anticipated to return to play by November 1st, facing OGC Nice.

Impact on Upcoming Matches

Ruiz’s late recovery poses concerns for his inclusion in the starting lineup for the crucial match against Bayern Munich on December 4th. This match will be pivotal in the first half of the season for Paris Saint-Germain.

Additionally, extended absences for other players like Ousmane Dembélé, Marquinhos, and João Neves indicate the need for proper preparation. The short off-season limited preparation time for many PSG players, thus leading to strategic decisions for their health and performance moving forward.
