Mvuka (ankle) is a late call for Saturday's derby against Rennes, coach Olivier Pantaloni said in the press conference, according to Le Telegramme. "Joel had a small issue to his left ankle yesterday."

Mvuka suffered an ankle issue to his left ankle in Wednesday's training session and will be a late call for Saturday's derby against Rennes. The midfielder will likely be assessed after the final training session, although a potential absence for the clash wouldn't impact the starting XI since he has mainly been a bench option for the Merlus this campaign.
