Monaco’s Caio Henrique out of Lille game; Paul Pogba ready to go again
AS Monaco will be without Caio Henrique for Sunday’s match against Lille OSC. The Brazilian had been close to a return from a hamstring injury, but has now suffered a setback, Sébastien Pocognoli has confirmed.
The Brazil international had been training with the first team. However, Pocognoli has confirmed that he has sustained another muscular injury – not necessarily a relapse – that will require tests in the coming days. In any case, he will not face LOSC. He will hope to be back for the final game of the season, against RC Strasbourg Alsace… and also for the FIFA World Cup this summer.
One player who could once again start is Paul Pogba. The former Manchester United and Juventus midfielder started his first game in three years against FC Metz last weekend. He played sixty minutes, the most minutes he has played in a single match for four years.
