Warren Zaïre-Emery is nearing a return—a key boost for PSG ahead of the Liverpool clash. And as for Fabian Ruiz… he’s fine!
Warren Zaïre-Emery, who injured his left ankle during PSG’s 4-1 victory over Stuttgart on January 29, is edging closer to a comeback.
The 18-year-old midfielder, with one goal in 18 Ligue 1 appearances this season, will not be fit in time for the Coupe de France quarter-final against Saint-Brieuc on Wednesday (9:10 PM), according to Le Parisien.
Champions League Return on the Horizon
However, he could be back as soon as Saturday against Lille (9:05 PM), depending on his recovery progress. The PSG medical staff is also optimistic about his availability for the Champions League Round of 16 first leg against Liverpool on March 5.
This is excellent news for PSG, who will regain a crucial player ahead of this European showdown.
Ruiz to Be Rested
As for Fabian Ruiz, who picked up a knock in the last match, his condition is not a concern. He might be rested for the Coupe de France to avoid any risk, with PSG expected to rotate their squad in preparation for upcoming key fixtures.
