Scores goal, still building fitness

Buades scored one goal from three shots (one on target) while adding three tackles (two won) and five clearances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Auxerre before being substituted in the 87th minute as he continues building match fitness following his recovery from injury, according to coach Patrick Videira.

Analysis: Buades delivered an impressive all-around performance against Auxerre, finding the back of the net while contributing significantly to Le Mans' defensive efforts. The right-sided defender recorded three shots, including one on target, alongside two successful tackles and five clearances, highlighting his involvement at both ends of the pitch. Although he was withdrawn in the 87th minute, manager Videira clarified that the substitution was related to his ongoing fitness management rather than a new injury concern. Buades recently returned from an undisclosed injury sustained in training and has yet to regain his full physical condition, prompting the coaching staff to carefully manage his workload.

Back in squad, could start against PSG

Buades (undisclosed) has recovered from his injury and will return to the squad for Saturday's Ligue 1 clash against PSG, according to coach Patrick Videira, per Clement Brossard of RMC Sport.

Analysis: Buades is back in contention after missing Le Mans' recent clash against Lens due to a knock suffered in training. The international break provided the defender with additional recovery time, and his return gives coach Patrick Videira another option on the right flank ahead of Saturday's trip to the Parc des Princes. Buades could immediately challenge Rayan Bamba for a spot in the starting XI, although Bamba's recent run of starts during his absence means the two are likely to compete for playing time moving forward.
