Mbappe, Neymar, Gueye … this season, the PSG infirmary has a job

The infirmary of Camp des Loges is not empty. She even welcomes since Wednesday a new resident. The exams performed on Idrissa Gueye revealed a hamstring contracture. The 30-year-old midfielder will be ruled out ten days of training.

He will miss the trip to Nice on Friday for the 10th day of L1, as well as the game in Bruges on Tuesday in the Champions League. Gana, as all his teammates call him, is also uncertain for the clasico against OM on 27 October.

One more tile for Thomas Tuchel who made Senegalese the basic man of his midfield. He has also become the lucky charm of the club's capital, which has not conceded any goals in the eight games that the former Everton player has played since August 25. Meetings that Paris has won.

Friendly matches that question

This new glitch is an umpteenth episode of the bad medical soap opera whose players of the capital are the heroes. The last rebound dated back to Sunday. Neymar came out in the 12th minute of the match played with Brazil against Nigeria, victim of a lesion in the left thigh that will remove the land for four weeks. No. 10 had resumed competition just a month ago. His return is now expected November 23 against Lille. If everything goes well.

These two wounds question the relevance of the friendly matches organized by certain selections during this international truce. Brazil and Senegal faced each other a week ago in Singapore for a friendly match in the middle of a desert stadium with a temperature flirting with 30 ° C and humidity over 80%. All after more than twelve hours of flight.

"Jet lag and climate change undermine the body, says Jean-Marcel Ferret, the former doctor of the France team. The first risk is muscle despite all the protocols that can be put in place. These trips endanger the players. They are the ones who pay the price. "

Tuchel fears to see the black series spread

The Parisian staff is facing a real headache. These absences are indeed in addition to the long unavailability of Thilo Kehrer (foot), while Julian Draxler (arch plantar) and Colin Dagba (thigh) have just resumed the collective training.

Thomas Tuchel now hopes to be able to relaunch Edinson Cavani and Kylian Mbappe against Nice. The Uruguayan has not played for eight weeks because of pain in the hip, while the French played only two times thirty minutes during the same period.

No risk will be taken by Thomas Tuchel who fears to see the black series spread further. Because, despite the changes in the organization chart of the medical staff this summer and the continued use of specialists Aspetar Clinic in Doha (Qatar), the chronicle of injuries has never been so relevant to PSG.
