Stade Rennais’ manager, Frédéric Antonetti, is facing a series of challenges as his team has not secured a victory in the last three games, and the squad is grappling with physical issues. One of the concerns revolves around Ghanaian defender John Mensah, who joined the club in January but has been unable to make an appearance due to recurring injuries.
Mensah is once again sidelined, this time due to an adductor injury, and will be unavailable for the upcoming game against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday. Additionally, full-back Théophile-Catherine is also ruled out for the match. However, there is some positive news for Antonetti as he expects the return of Congolese player Hérita Ilunga, who has been absent for a month.
The absence of key players, especially due to persistent injuries, poses a challenge for Antonetti as he seeks to guide Stade Rennais through a tough period. Managing the squad’s fitness and finding suitable replacements will be crucial for the team’s performance in upcoming fixtures.
