Alexsandro Injury: Still not training

Alexsandro (quadriceps) hasn't resumed team training with Lille yet and is very unlikely to feature in upcoming fixtures for the time being, according to Le Petit Lillois.

Alexsandro missed the last five games for LOSC due to a quadriceps injury and will likely remain sidelined a bit longer as he has yet to resume team training. This is a big blow for the Dogues since the center-back has been an undisputed starter and leader in the backline under coach Bruno Genesio. Until he returns to full fitness, Aissa Mandi and Nathan Ngoy are the preferred pairing in central defense, with Chancel Mbemba as a backup option.
