Monaco Selects Eric Dier for Paris FC Clash

By OffsAIde

AS Monaco, having lost their last three Ligue 1 games, will face Paris FC on Sunday at 17:15. Central defender Eric Dier has been named in the 21‑man squad for matchday nine, according to Nice‑Matin. After a press conference at La Turbie on Friday, manager Filipe Luis said he needed an extra day to decide before confirming the call. Dier has recovered from a hamstring injury that kept him out since the match in Sofia. Mika Biereth, who appeared as a late substitute at Lorient on 18 October, remains unavailable for Ligue 1. Dier replaces Mohammed Salisu, who is not selected, and Anis Soubeir is omitted for a second straight match. Ansu Fati is sidelined with a hamstring problem, and Stanis Idumbo is still treating a psoas injury. No other significant absences are noted. The squad list includes Hradecky, Köhn, Stawiecki, Vanderson, Dier, Mawissa, Nazinho, Sané, Teze, Cabral, Camara, Coulibaly, Diop, Golovin, Minamino, Touré, Zakaria, Abline, Balogun, Brunner, and Detourbet.
