Thilo Kehrer - Suspension cleared Kehrer is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.

Impact Kehrer has served his suspension following the yellow cards accumulation in the French competitions and is set to return in the next contest. The center-back has been an undisputed starter in the backline for the Diagonale and should claim back that role despite the new arrival of Wout Faes in the transfer window.

Ansu Fati - Fit once again Fati (hamstring) is on the bench for Friday's match against Lorient.

Impact Fati is available as expected, with the forward working into a role on the bench after four games out. With four starts in 10 appearances this season, the forward should remain in more of a rotational role.

Vanderson - Option from bench Vanderson (thigh) is on the bench for Friday's match against Lorient.

Impact Vanderson is fit once again but is outside the starting role, instead featuring from the bench. He started in the five games before his absence and should return to that role in the coming games after testing his legs.

Aladji Bamba - Clears illness Friday Bamba (illness) is an option for Friday's clash against Lorient, the club announced.

Impact Bamba has been dealing with an illness this week and could clear it before Friday's clash against Lorient. This is great news for Monaco since he will be an additional option to the squad that has been thin due to numerous injuries. That said, Bamba should remain a bench option at best moving forward.

Ansu Fati - Back available Friday Fati (hamstring) is an option for Friday's clash against Lorient, the club announced.

Impact Fati cleared his hamstring injury and trained in full in the recent weeks at La Turbie. The former Blaugrana is an option for Friday's clash against Lorient, although he might get a limited role for the Diagonale since reports say he might be already on the move during the transfer window after not performing to the level the Monaco board expected.

Vanderson - Option to play Friday Vanderson (thigh) is back available for Friday's clash against Lorient, the club announced.

Folarin Balogun - Back in training Wednesday Balogun (undisclosed) was spotted back in team training at La Turbie on Wednesday, according to Christopher Roux from Nice Matin.

Impact Balogun has trained with the team on Wednesday at La Turbie after recovering from a minor injury suffered in the French Cup win against Orleans. The American will likely be back available for Friday's clash against Lorient and should resume his starting role in attack for the Diagonale.

Vanderson - Spotted in team training Vanderson (thigh) was spotted in team training on Tuesday, according to the club.

Impact Vanderson missed the match against Lyon due to a thigh injury but was seen in team training on Tuesday, a positive sign ahead of Friday's home game against Lorient since he has some time to recover ahead of the clash. The Brazilian is a regular starter for Monaco, but if he has to miss another Ligue 1 match, the likely options to replace him are Jordan Teze or the young Kassoum Ouattara, who has played as a right-back in the French Cup against Orleans.

Wout Faes - Joins Monaco Faes has been loaned to Monaco from Leicester City, according to his new club.

Impact Faes is done with his time in England and off to France, inking a deal with Monaco on loan for the rest of the season. However, the club will hold an option to buy, potentially making him a full time member depending on other transfers this winter and how the season plays out. He has experience in the Premier League and has served as a starter for the Foxes for multiple seasons, a solid addition for depth or as a starter for Monaco.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Eric Dier - Plays full game in Cup Dier played the full game in Saturday's French Cup win against Orleans, confirming he is back available for Monaco.

Impact Dier played 90 minutes in Saturday's victory against Orleans in the French Cup, confirming he is feeling good after returning from his long term injuries that sidelined him since mid-October. His availability is a good development for the Diagonale since he will be the only natural center-back available for Friday's clash against Lorient if no player is signed by the club before that date.

Folarin Balogun - Suffers injury in French Cup Balogun (undisclosed) scored one goal in Saturday's win against Orleans in the French Cup before being forced off with an injury late in the game, according to Le Telegramme.

Impact Balogun suffered an injury late in Saturday's win in the French Cup against Orleans and was forced off as he couldn't continue. The extend of the injury is yet unknown but it would be a blow for the Diagonale if the American needed to miss some time to recover from the issue. If that needed to be the case, George Ilenikhena and Mika Biereth could see increased playing time in the attack.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Vanderson - Still not training Vanderson (thigh) is still not training with the team, according to Vivien Seiller from Nice Matin.

Impact Vanderson still hasn't resumed team training with Monaco after missing the last game against Lyon due to a thigh injury. The Brazilian will hope to recover before the next Ligue 1 game against Lorient next week since the options in the backline are very limited due to injuries, suspensions and the AFCON and if Vanderson can't be back fit for that game, coach Sebastien Pocognoli will have to solve a massive puzzle for his defense.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Thilo Kehrer - Set for suspension Kehrer will serve a one-match ban due to an accumulation of five yellow cards in French competitions, the league announced.

Impact Kehrer accumulated five yellow cards in French competitions and will be suspended for the clash against Lorient on Jan. 16. His absence will impact the starting squad, as he has been an undisputed starter in the backline under coach Sebastien Pocognoli, with limited options available to replace him against the Merlus, since the backline is missing several players due to the AFCON and injuries. Jordan Teze and Caio Henrique are the likely options to take on the second central defender role for that game alongside Eric Dier, who hasn't played a full game in a long time, creating a tactical puzzle for the Diagonale coach.
