Impact Weah returns quickly though the arrivals of Mohamed Bayo and Remy Cabella and the great form of Jonathan David and Jonathan Bamba could keep Weah on the bench in his season debut.

Tim Weah - Available after suspension Weah (suspension) will be available for Friday's match versus Nantes.
Gabriel Gudmundsson - Available for Nantes match Gudmundsson (suspension) will be available for Friday's match versus Nantes.
Impact Gudmundsson's versatility gives him a much greater chance of a start in his return though Lille seemed pretty set with their squad in the opener with both Tiago Djalo and Jonathan Bamba hard to beat on the left side in defense and on the wing, respectively.

Leo Jardim - Allows goal in thumping win Jardim made one save in Sunday's 4-1 win over Auxerre.
Impact Jardim had little work to do in a dominated by Lille match up but even then he couldn't really get off to a good start with a clean sheet. With eight shutouts in 17 starts last term though his upside remains high.

Akim Zedadka - Debuts with goal in 4-1 victory Zedadka scored on his lone shot and added three crosses (none accurate), two dribbles and one interception in Sunday's 4-1 win over Auxerre.
Impact Zedadka is off to a fantastic start of his Lille tenure and while he didn't have much work defensively he sure made his presence felt up front. The defender hasn't had more than one goal per season on professional level but the early score this term could see him jump over that hump.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Benjamin Andre - Scores in opening rout Andre scored on his lone shot and hauled in six tackles (five won), three aerials won and two blocked shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over Auxerre.
Impact Andre is off to a terrific start of the campaign and even got on the score sheet very early in the season. He hasn't had more than two goals in any of his three previous years with Lille but if the team can sustain that form this could be the year to break that barrier.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Bamba - Assists in 4-1 romp Bamba tallied one assist, one shot (off target), two chances created, seven crosses (one accurate), three dribbles and three corners in Sunday's 4-1 win over Auxerre.
Impact Bamba is off to a fantastic start of the season with Lille looking like the title-winners again. If the squad can sustain that form the winger could have a monster season again with set pieces also boosting his numbers.
AUGUST 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan David - Hammers brace, assist in rout David scored twice on seven shots (three on target) and tallied one assist in two chances created in Sunday's 4-1 win over Auxerre.
Impact David was rejuvenated in the opener and looked like himself from the first part of last season. With Mohamed Bayo the bona fide striker in the squad at the moment the former will likely have more of a winger role in the new scheme and he seems to feel great over there.
