L Equipe: Achraf will have a rest in the next round of Ligue 1, and Paris may ask Marquinhos and others to take over.

According to "L'Equipe" report, head coach Luis Enrique is faced with a right-back selection problem as Achraf will be rested in Wednesday's game against Lorient and Paris Saint-Germain lacks a substitute at this position.

French media analyzed two main alternatives. The first is to use a defender, that is, letting captain Marquinhos make a guest appearance. Enrique has done this before against Marseille away from home this season and against Barcelona in the Champions League last season. Marquinhos also frequently played as a right-back early in his career in Paris.

The second and most common solution since last season is to use midfielders as guest stars. Emery is considered a favorite. He is fast, aggressive and naturally adapts to the central position that Enrique requires of the full-backs.

Joao Neves has just returned from injury, so it is not ideal for him to come back immediately in a position that requires a lot of running. Mayulu also made two starts at the position. Data shows that since the 2024-25 season, Ashraf has occupied the Paris right back position 84% of the time.
