PARIS: Champions League finalist Paris Saint-Germain will be missing several players through injury for Sunday’s Ligue 1 game at home against Brest. Central defender Willian Pacho and left back Nuno Mendes have minor right thigh injuries while midfielder Warren Zaïre-Emery has been ruled out with lower back pain, the club said in their pre-match medical bulletin Saturday. PSG were already without star right back Achraf Hakimi and backup goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier due to thigh injuries. PSG eliminated Bayern Munich in the Champions League semifinals on Wednesday and will defend their European crown against Premier League leader Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest. PSG have not yet sealed the Ligue 1 title but the defending champion can do so against second-place Lens on Wednesday in a rescheduled match from April. Lens beat Nantes 1-0 on Friday.
