Marquinhos will not play against Reims. Hit in the calf in Nantes (0-2), the Brazilian captain of Paris-SG has already missed the matches against Rennes (1-1), Monaco (0-0) and again Real Sociedad (2-1 victory), Tuesday , in San Sebastian. And this even though he tested himself on Monday in Anoeta. Without success. “Marqui” has still not returned to full training since and must therefore withdraw from Sunday (1 p.m.), during the 25th day of Ligue 1. “Due to persistent pain in the Achilles tendon, Marquinhos benefits of appropriate treatment. He will be left to rest for the next few days,” we explain in the club’s medical press release. Also missing from the Basque Country, Danilo Pereira is not mentioned. Already out against Real, Marco Asensio (hamstring) “continues his recovery work” and must also give up on Reims, while Milan Skriniar and Presnel Kimpembe are still unavailable. The Slovak, however, “resumed activity on the field individually”, the Frenchman continuing “his recovery exercises”.
Recruited in 2013 from AS Roma, Marquinhos has played 26 matches in all competitions since the start of the season and 433 in total under the Parisian colors (38 goals), which makes him the second most capped player in the history of the club behind Jean-Marc Pilorget (435). A record which will still hold a little due to the physical problems of the 29-year-old player.
