Rafik Messali Injury: Late call against Lille
Messali (knee) is a late call for Sunday's clash against Lille, coach Carles Martinez said in the press conference. "He was already close to being able to play against PSG but we preferred to be patient and not take any risks. He's an important player for us, he's vying for a spot in the squad on Sunday"
Messali has recovered from his knee injury and is a late call for Sunday's clash against the Dogues. That said, his potential return will not affect the starting squad since he will only hold a rotational role once fully back fit for the TeFeCe.
