Back available against Le Havre
Merah (ankle) is back available for Saturday's clash against Le Havre after being included in Lyon's matchday squad.
Analysis: Merah is available for the first time this season after recovering from the ankle injury that kept him out for most of preseason and Lyon's opening matches. The midfielder completed a full week of training before earning his return to the squad, though his lack of match fitness means he is expected to start on the bench against Le Havre.
Trains fully this week
Merah (ankle) trained fully this week and could be an option for Saturday's clash against Le Havre, according to Le Progres OL.
Analysis: Merah continues working his way back into full contention after missing the vast majority of preseason with an ankle injury, having returned to training at the end of July but yet to feature in any of Lyon's first three official matches. He was considered one of the club's breakout performers last season, making 32 appearances, and this full week of training marks a significant step toward getting him back up to speed after falling behind his teammates in match sharpness.
