The news is indeed true. Abdul Majeed Waris, the Ghanaian footballer, has been included in the squad of 19 players called up by Ariël Jacobs for Valencia’s trip to Lille for the 33rd day of Ligue 1. Despite sustaining a shoulder injury during the previous match against Lyon, Waris was initially uncertain for the upcoming game. However, he has been deemed fit to play.
Unfortunately, Lindsay Rose and Mody Traoré are unavailable due to their injuries and will not be participating in the derby. On a positive note, the coach has decided to include the young attacking midfielder, Lyes Houri, who is 18 years old, in the squad.
Here is the Valencia squad for the match:
- Goalkeepers: Novaes, Penneteau
- Defenders: Angoua, Ciss, Kagelmacher, Masuaku, Mater, Medjani, Nery
- Midfielders: Dossevi, Doumbia, Ducourtioux, Enza-Yamissi, Houri, Melikson
- Forwards: Bahebeck, Le Tallec, Pujol, Waris
This news highlights Waris’s inclusion in the Valencia squad despite his recent injury, showcasing his importance to the team.
