Roberto De Zerbi commented on the absence and therefore the importance of his left side. “I don’t have an understudy for Quentin Merlin. All players are not the same, we must respect the characteristics of each one. We also have Pol Lirola and Amir Murillo, there are variations. It’s a significant absence, Quentin Merlin had a very good start to the season, we have to adapt.”
Fabien Centonze and Adel Mahamoud withdraw, Moses Simon uncertain
On the FC Nantes side, two players are out: Fabien Centonze et Adel Mahamoud. Moreover, Moses Simonwho missed the previous meeting against Strasbourg, remains uncertain. These absences could have a significant impact on Kombouaré's strategy and on the progress of the match against the Phocaeans.
