Paris Saint Germain (PSG) coach Thomas Tuchel has announced his excitement for the return of the talented player Kylian Mbappe to the club after a thigh injury. The coach said this on Friday when addressing newsmen.
World Cup winner Mbappe, 20, has been benched since the victory over Toulouse on August 25. He missed the surprise midweek loss to Reims.
This is a further boost to PSG’s attacking options. Neymar and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting had been left as the main forwards available. Tuchel also confirmed that summer signing Mauro Icardi is fit to play a partial part.
The coach added that the Mbappe is fully back after missing two matches since sustaining a minor problem in the victory over Real Madrid on September 18. The former inter Milan forward is ready to partly tangle.
“Kylian and Mauro are in the squad and are available to play some minutes,” Tuchel said.
Tuchel also informed newsmen that quote” options are more for me now since Mbappe and Icardi are available. Neymar and Eric Maxim will be helped and the goals will flow”.
Still missing in the team is Edinson Cavani who is struggling with a hip injury.
After travelling to Bordeaux on Saturday, Tuchel’s squad head to Galatasaray for Tuesday’s Champions League game.
