Senny Mayulu
PSG
Scores in win over Lyon
Mayulu scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 2-0 victory against Lyon.
Analysis: Mayulu broke the deadlock in the second half for PSG with an unstoppable shot from outside the box. The midfielder was one of two players who solved the puzzle for PSG off the bench, along with Mika Godts, but that shouldn't change his long-term outlook with PSG. In a loaded midfield and attack, Mayulu should remain a depth option in most matches, particularly when most of the attacking players are available.
Cleared to face Barcelona
Mayulu (thigh) is available for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Barcelona after recovering from a thigh injury sustained while representing France U21 during the international break, according to the club.
Analysis: Mayulu has completed his recovery from the thigh problem that kept him sidelined for several weeks and is now available for selection against Barcelona. The young midfielder resumed team training Monday after initially being expected to miss approximately a month of action, marking an important step in his return to competitive fitness. His availability provides Paris Saint-Germain with additional depth in midfield ahead of Tuesday's European encounter, although his recent absence could limit his chances of immediately returning to the starting lineup. Mayulu may initially be restricted to a substitute role as the coaching staff gradually rebuild his match fitness and manage his workload to minimize the risk of another setback.
Back in team training Monday
Mayulu returned to team training with Paris Saint-Germain on Monday as he continues recovering from a thigh injury sustained while representing France U21 during the international break, according to the club.
Analysis: Mayulu has taken another encouraging step in his rehabilitation after rejoining his teammates for Monday's training session following several weeks on the sidelines. The young midfielder suffered a thigh injury while on international duty with France U21, with initial assessments suggesting he could require approximately a month to recover. His latest involvement in team training indicates that he is making steady progress, although it remains unclear whether he will be available for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Barcelona. Mayulu will likely need to rebuild his match fitness before returning to competitive action, with the coaching staff expected to manage his workload carefully to avoid aggravating the injury.
Returns to team training
Mayulu has resumed team training with Paris Saint-Germain after recovering from a thigh injury sustained while representing France U21, according to the club.
Analysis: Mayulu has taken a significant step forward in his recovery after rejoining his teammates in training following several weeks on the sidelines. The young midfielder sustained the injury during the international break, with initial assessments suggesting he would require approximately a month to recover. His return to team sessions indicates that his rehabilitation is progressing well, although it remains unclear whether he will be available for PSG's next competitive fixture. Mayulu will need to rebuild his match fitness before being considered for regular playing time, and the coaching staff could initially manage his workload carefully to avoid another setback.
Facing month-long absence
Mayulu (thigh) is expected to be sidelined for around a month after suffering an injury while on international duty with France U21, according to L'Equipe.
Analysis: Mayulu's updated timeline confirms a more significant absence after PSG had initially indicated he would require several weeks of treatment. The midfielder is already ruled out against Le Mans and is likely to miss several matches across domestic and European competition. His recovery will need to progress considerably before a return to training becomes realistic.
Will miss several weeks
Mayulu (thigh) will be receiving treatment for the next few weeks after sustaining a thigh injury with the France U21 squad earlier this week, his club announced Thursday.
Analysis: Mayulu suffered a left thigh injury during the France U21 match against Estonia on Tuesday evening, and the recovery timeline puts the young forward in danger of missing several contests. Even if the recovery takes only a couple of weeks, Mayulu might not be fit enough for the resumption of both Ligue 1, against Le Mans on Oct. 14, and the Champions League, against Manchester City on Oct. 14. With a multi-week period of recovery, he might be out until mid-October in a best-case scenario.
Withdraws with thigh injury
Mayulu (thigh) has withdrawn from the France U21 squad after suffering a muscular injury to his left thigh during Tuesday's 2-0 win over Estonia, according to L'Equipe.
Analysis: Mayulu will return to Paris for further examinations after being forced out during the first half against Estonia, with the tests expected to determine the severity of the injury and a potential recovery timeline. His availability for the return of Ligue 1 action against Le Mans on Oct. 10 is therefore uncertain. Mayulu has primarily operated as a depth option in midfield and has not received consistent playing time this season.
Departs with injury Tuesday
Mayulu suffered an apparent adductor injury while playing with France U21 on Tuesday, according to CanalSupporters.
Analysis: Mayulu was forced to leave the game in the first half due to an adductor injury, and further tests will be needed to determine whether the young midfielder will be fit in time to play against Le Mans on Oct. 10 when the Ligue 1 season resumes. That said, Mayulu's absence shouldn't matter much from a fantasy perspective, as he's a depth option in midfield and doesn't get consistent minutes.
Inks extension
Mayulu has extended his contract with PSG, according to his club.
Analysis: Mayulu is sticking around PSG as a young player with high upside, with the 20-year-old getting anew deal until 2031. He broke out for the club last season with 26 appearances (21 starts), recording four goals and four assists in his time on the field. With the exit of multiple midfield and attacking options this season, even more time could open up for the youngster in the future.
Six key passes in win
Mayulu had four shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and six chances created in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Brest.
Analysis: Mayulu was his side's most creative player in Sunday's 1-0 win over Brest, registering a season-high six key passes and two shots on target while controlling the tempo against a stubborn defensive block. Mayulu has now scored four goals and delivered four assists across 24 Ligue 1 appearances this season, operating in a rotational role while continuing to showcase his versatility across multiple positions.
Scores one goal
Mayulu scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 victory versus Angers.
Analysis: Mayulu played a key role in Saturday's 3-0 win over Angers, doubling the lead in the first half by collecting Lucas Beraldo's precise through ball and finishing calmly past Herve Koffi to make it 2-0 just before the break. The French midfielder operated as the right-sided midfielder in a rotated lineup and showed composure throughout his 72 minutes, combining technical precision with smart movement in behind the Angers defensive block. Mayulu has now scored four Ligue 1 goals this season across 22 appearances, consistently making the most of the minutes he is given to showcase his qualities.
