After a lengthy delay, Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe may finally make his first appearance for the club this season. PSG manager Thomas Tuchel selected Mbappe for the official squad list for the team’s Ligue 1 away fixture against OGC Nice, the club announced on its official website.
Mbappe missed the team’s opening three league contests of the season due to a positive coronavirus test.
The Frenchman was subjected to a week-long self-isolation period, but he just recently came off of it. Mbappe also returned to training earlier this week.
It will be interesting to see how Tuchel utilizes Mbappe. He has not featured in a fixture for the team since the UEFA Champions League final last month. However, he did play in a UEFA Nations League fixture for the French national team earlier this month. Still, there may be significant concerns regarding his fitness level. Tuchel could play it safe and feature Mbappe off the bench against Nice.
