On the eve of the Reims vs PSG clash, the capital club shared the definitive list of players who will be absent from the game, specifically those currently receiving treatment. As it stands, no fewer than five PSG players are confirmed to miss the match.

PSG medical report ahead of Stade de Reims clash in Ligue 1

In a late update, Marco Asensio was added to PSG's medical report after picking up an injury during the midweek Champions League match against Girona. The Spanish playmaker, who had started as a false nine, suffered a "muscle strain in his right thigh" and will be sidelined for the upcoming week.

This means Asensio will be absent for the Reims game, alongside Gianluigi Donnarumma, who continues treatment for a thigh issue that arose in the previous weekend's match against Brest.

The remaining three absentees are longer-term injuries. Presnel Kimpembe is still working through his performance programme, with hopes of rejoining full training by mid-October, according to Le Parisien. Lucas Hernandez continues his own recovery protocol, and Goncalo Ramos remains in rehabilitation.

No PSG players are suspended for the match, while Reims will also be missing at least four players, including Gabriel Moscardo.

Here’s a summary of PSG’s medical update ahead of the Reims fixture:

  • Marco Asensio has a muscle strain in his right thigh and will be in treatment throughout the following week.
  • Gianluigi Donnarumma remains under care for his thigh strain.
  • Presnel Kimpembe continues his performance programme with a possible return in mid-October.
  • Lucas Hernandez is progressing through his recovery plan.
  • Goncalo Ramos remains in rehabilitation.

Luis Enrique often favours rotating his squad following key fixtures, and with standout performances from the likes of Joao Neves and Randal Kolo Muani despite limited game time against Girona in the last Champions League match, they seem strong candidates to feature in the starting XI for this Ligue 1 match.
