Bordeaux is set to face Toulouse this Saturday in the 2nd round of Ligue 1. In preparation for the renowned Garonne derby, Girondins coach Francis Gillot has finalized a squad of 17 players. Following a disappointing home defeat against Monaco (2-0) on the opening day, Girondins are eager to secure points at the Stadium.
While the Blues Marines coach can rely on Malian player Cheick Diabaté, he has opted not to include Lamine Sané in the squad. The Senegalese international will not be part of the Girondin group traveling to the pink city. The club has not provided extensive details about the specific reason for his exclusion. However, according to L’Equipe, it is suggested that the defender returned late, later than his teammate Henri Saivet, from the Senegal-Zambia match (1-1) held on Wednesday in the Parisian region.
