Paris Saint-Germain have announced the squad Luis Enrique has selected to face Monaco this evening, Friday, in the third round of the French league.
One name stood out by its absence: left-back Lucas Digne. He had trained with the group on Thursday and looked a strong candidate to start against Monaco.
Suspension rules Nuno Mendes out of the Monaco clash too, following the red card he picked up in the Champions Cup, and that ban had opened the door for Digne to feature at left-back.
Digne's surprise omission now forces Luis Enrique to find another solution for the left flank.
