Christian Mawissa Elebi

ANALYSIS
Mawissa is still grinding through his recovery from a long term hamstring injury and remains unavailable for the Diagonale even though he has been back in team training in recent weeks. It is a tough break for the squad because he was locked in as a regular starter before going down and his absence leaves coach Sebastien Pocognoli short on reliable depth across the backline. Wout Faes is in line to handle increased minutes and shoulder a bigger role until Mawissa is fully cleared to return.
