Ruled out for opener
Mandi (groin) is ruled out for the season opener against Brest on Saturday, according to Le Petit Lillois.
ANALYSIS
Mandi suffered a groin injury in the last pre-season friendly and is ruled out for the season opener against Brest since he didn't recover in time. This is a big blow for the LOSC since Tiago Santos is expected to return next week and Thomas Meunier is suspended and injured too. Therefore, the young Ousmane Toure is expected to start on Saturday at right-back.

Suffers groin injury
Mandi has suffered a groin injury in the last pre-season friendly and will be assessed on Monday, coach Bruno Genesio said in a press conference, according to Le Petit Lillois. "Aissa, he gradually felt discomfort in his adductor. The first feedback I've had seems to indicate that it doesn't seem too bad. Initially reassuring. But we'll have to wait for the results of the tests on Monday. Right now, we're in the heat of the moment. It's never completely reliable."
