At a press conference this Thursday, October 17, AS Monaco coach Adi Hütter made no secret of his choice of goalkeeper for the reception of Lille OSC this Friday during the 8e Ligue 1 day (8:45 p.m.).
Returning from an ankle injury contracted before the resumption of the championship, Radoslaw Majecki will regain his starting place. « Philipp (old) was our No. 1 when he arrived last season. His performances made us doubt him. We have changed. Radek, who became No. 1, played a very important role in qualifying for the Champions League. » The Monegasque coach, however, deplores the absence of Mohammed Salisu, injured with the Ghanaian selection. On the other hand, Denis Zakaria, injured in the knee with Switzerland, “can start well”.
In Lille, the infirmary is always full. Tiago Santos, an essential part of the Lille game, seriously injured his knee in training on Tuesday and will be absent for several months. Captain Benjamin André is suspended. Congolese midfielder Nagl’ayel Mukau is back a few weeks after a sprained ankle.
