Eric Abidal, central defender for AS Monaco, is currently suffering from flu-like symptoms, according to a press release from the club. This setback raises doubts about his availability for the upcoming match against AS Saint-Etienne. Abidal was notably absent from training on Thursday due to his illness.
Meanwhile, AS Monaco’s Italian coach Claudio Ranieri will have the benefit of Aymen Abdennour’s return. Abdennour, who had been sidelined with a knee injury, has completed his recovery and resumed intensive training with the professional squad.
