Returns to bench
Mendes (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Angers.
ANALYSIS
Mendes has been included in the squad after being sidelined since suffering a thigh issue during the Champions League win over Liverpool, with the coaching staff set to ease him back via the bench in line with the initial expectation surrounding his return. The Portuguese full-back's availability could not come at a better time for PSG, who are gearing up for a packed run-in that includes Tuesday's Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich, and some minutes off the bench against Angers should serve as the ideal tune-up ahead of that massive showdown. Lucas Hernandez is set to retain the left-back spot in the meantime as Mendes works his way back to full fitness.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not expected to leave PSG
Mendes is not expected to leave PSG despite Manchester United's interest in his services, according to L'Equipe.
ANALYSIS
Even though Mendes sits quite high on Manchester United's list of potential signings for the summer, the Portugal star seems set to remain with PSG for the foreseeable future. The French giants are in no rush to sell the 22-year-old left-back. This means the Red Devils will have to look at other alternatives to bolster their depth on the left side of the defense.
