Overview
- Lucas Chevalier was ruled out against Rennes after an ankle knock sustained at Monaco.
- Luis Enrique refused to confirm his starter, saying either Matvey Safonov or Renato Marin would be a good option in goal.
- Reporting in France indicates Safonov is expected to step in, which would mark his first PSG appearance of the season and his first since the May 24 Coupe de France final.
- PSG previously debated whether to stick with Chevalier or consider rotation, an idea Enrique quickly dismissed in favor of a clear hierarchy.
- Safonov has discussed occasional language hurdles with the coach, while club sources maintain he has not asked to leave and is under contract until 2029.
