Nuno Mendes - Not selected Mendes (hamstring) wasn't called up for Friday's clash with Strasbourg.

Impact Mendes won't be an option for Friday's clash after not being called up. The left-back is still recovering from a serious hamstring issue that has prevented him from making an appearance this season. Mendes is getting closer to a return though, and could be back as soon as a Feb. 10 clash with Lille.

Milan Skriniar - Unavailable Friday Skriniar (ankle) is out for Friday's clash with Strasbourg, PSG announced.

Impact Skriniar remains on the sideline for Friday's match due to an ankle issue. The defender is back in rehab and is working individually on recovering, but wasn't quite ready. Marquinhos and Lucas Hernandez both could fill the starting XI for Friday's clash. Skriniar's next chance to return is a Feb. 10 clash with Lille.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Alexandre Letellier - Still out Letellier (illness) wasn't called up for Friday's clash with Strasbourg.

Impact Letellier won't be an option for Friday's match as he struggles with an infection. The goalkeeper is buried on the depth chart behind Arnau Tenas and Gianluigi Donnnarumma either way, and wouldn't likely be any sort of option even if fit.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Achraf Hakimi - Not called up Hakimi (AFCON) wasn't called up for Friday's trip to Strasbourg.

Impact Hakimi was eliminated from AFCON earlier in the week but evidently didn't get back in time for Friday's clash. The wing-back will be an option to return for a Feb. 10 clash with Lille, where he will likely be in the starting XI once more. Lucas Beraldo could be in for another start at left-back, with Nordi Mukiele another option as well.

Nuno Mendes - In doubt for Friday Mendes took part in the first training session with the team on Thursday before heading to individual work, holding heavy doubt of a return heading into Friday's match against Stra...

Impact Mendes was expected to return to play on Friday but seems to be a little behind in his recovery process, as he is in heavy doubt about playing after still training individually Thursday. With the newest developments, it feels pretty safe to say the defender will be absent from another match, as not being fully upgraded to team training leaves a huge gap in the rehabilitation process. If he does not play Friday, the player will then hope to return against Lille next Saturday, as he will look to make his season debut on the team sheet.

Milan Skriniar - Doubtful despite starting rehab Skriniar (ankle) has been upgraded to start rehabilitation ahead of Friday's contest against Strasbourg, the club reported Thursday.

Impact Skriniar looks to be making decent progress in his return to play, as he has started his rehabilitation after going down injured against Toulouse on Jan. 3 in the Trophee des Champions. With one day until the next match, there is reasonable doubt the defender won't be ready to play yet. However, the club will still hope for a return, and if not Friday, he should be back to face Lille on Feb. 10.

Randal Kolo Muani - Nets goal in draw Muani scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Brest.

Impact Asensio saw his first start since Sep 3 while recording his third goal on the season. A foot injury kept the winger out for two months earlier in the campaign, where he has seen his starting role taken over by Bradley Barcola due to poor form.

Gianluigi Donnarumma - Solid effort in draw Donnarumma made four saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Brest.

Impact Donnarumma tried his best in the match Sunday with four saves on the day, despite allowing two goals to Brest. He's allowed just five in the last six games, holding on to a clean sheet in that span. This puts him at seven clean sheets on the season, which is still six away from his total from 2022/23. The keeper will head to Strasbourg for the next clash on Friday, who have scored 11 goals in the last five contests.
