Idumbo is a psoas doubt for Monaco vs Lens
L’Équipe reports Stanis Idumbo is uncertain with psoas pain ahead of Monaco’s trip to face Lens, potentially opening the door for Ansu Fati and Folarin Balogun.
Monaco head into the 5th round of Ligue 1 with a fresh concern: Stanis Idumbo is dealing with psoas pain and his participation in the game vs Lens is in doubt, according to L’Équipe. The match is scheduled for this Friday at 20:45.
Knock after a run of games
As the outlet explains, the young left-sided midfielder had been relied on from the start. He started the first six matches of the season across all competitions under Filipe Luis. But after a stretch of consecutive appearances, the 21-year-old started feeling the issue and now his availability for the clash with the RCL is not guaranteed.
The trip to Strasbourg also left its mark elsewhere. L’Équipe notes that Monaco came back from Alsace with a 1-1 draw, while Anis Soubeir suffered an ankle sprain.
Who could step in
With Idumbo potentially sidelined, L’Équipe suggests the match could be an opportunity for Ansu Fati and Folarin Balogun to feature.
