Lucas Chevalier
PSGLikely back for final
Chevalier (thigh) returned to full team training Tuesday and will likely be an option for Saturday's Champions League final against Arsenal, the club posted.
Analysis: Chevalier had been limited to individual training sessions in recent weeks after a thigh issue kept him out of the final league fixtures, but his progression to full collective sessions is an encouraging development heading into the biggest game of PSG's season. The goalkeeper had lost his starting role to Matvey Safonov during the campaign and was also left out of France's World Cup squad, making his return to fitness a small positive note in what has been a difficult end to the season on a personal level. The club will make a final call on his involvement for the Budapest showpiece after assessing how he responds to the remaining sessions before kickoff.
Trains individually at Campus PSG
Chevalier (thigh) has returned to individual training but remains unavailable for Sunday's season finale against Paris FC, according to the club.
Analysis: Chevalier ends what has been a deeply difficult season on a sour note, having been left out of manager Didier Deschamps' France squad for the World Cup in addition to his ongoing thigh injury. The goalkeeper had lost his starting role to Matvey Safonov during the campaign and his absence from the French squad for the tournament is another significant blow for a player who arrived at PSG with high expectations. Renato Marin continues to serve as backup while Chevalier works through his rehabilitation ahead of the Champions League final against Arsenal on May 30.
Suffers thigh injury
Chevalier is out for the "next few weeks" due to a thigh injury, according to his club.
Analysis: Chevalier is seeing a rough development to close the season, as the goalie will now miss time due to a thigh injury. The once starter who is now a backup will likely need two to three weeks to recover, leaving Renato Marin to serve as backup behind Matvey Safanov for the time being. A return should still come this season, likely near mid-May for the keeper.
