Suffers minor thigh injury Mendes suffered a minor thigh injury and will be rested in the upcoming days, the club announced.
Impact Mendes suffered a new injury to his thigh this time that is considered minor but that will rule him out for Saturday's clash against Monaco. The left-back will be rested in the coming days and will likely return to team training next week. Lucas Hernandez will be expected to replace him in the backline, although Lucas Beraldo or William Pacho could also play a role since coach Luis Enrique was angry about Hernandez's red card against Tottenham in the Champions League.

Earns start Mendes (knee) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Le Havre.
Impact Mendes is back as expected Saturday, with the defender not only on the team sheet but also earning the start. The Portuguese full-back should continue in this role moving forward when playing in crucial matches, as he is one of the best left-backs in the world at the moment.

Available against Le Havre Mendes (knee) is back available for Saturday's clash against Le Havre, according to the club.
Impact Mendes has fully trained with the team this week, clearing his knee injury over the international break and returning available for Saturday's clash against the Ciel & Marine since he was not mentioned in the injury report. This is great news for PSG since the Portuguese is an undisputed starter at left-back and has been brilliant this season with seven goal contributions in 13 appearances for the Parisians. That said, with the Champions League clash against Tottenham coming on Wednesday, he will likely see minutes off the bench to avoid any risk, leaving the chance to Lucas Hernandez to start in the backline.

Back in team training Mendes (knee) was spotted back in team training on Thursday, according to Media Parisien.
Impact Mendes appears to be nearing a return from his knee injury after being spotted back in team training on Thursday. His timeline for a full return remains uncertain because Paris Saint-Germain now follow a new protocol that prioritizes caution with injured players to avoid setbacks by rushing them back. That said, Mendes remains an important starter in the PSG backline, therefore seeing him get some minutes against Le Havre on Saturday in order to be available to start against Tottenham on Wednesday in the Champions League would not be a surprise. If he is not ready, Lucas Hernandez is expected to see increased playing time.

PSG is struggling to open a sizeable gap on its rivals in Ligue 1 title race

Carefully managed Mendes (knee) is unlikely to feature in one week against Tottenham due to the new protocol of Paris Saint-Germain regarding injuries, according to ParisTeamFr.
Impact Mendes missed the last game due to a knee injury prior to the international break and will unlikely feature against Tottenham in one week time since Paris Saint-Germain decided to install a new protocol for injured players that will need them to undergo a big amount of workload and trainings before getting back in the match squad in order to avoid any setbacks that they often dealt with this season. Until Mendes returns to full fitness, Lucas Hernandez is expected to start at left-back for PSG.

Impact Mendes will fall to the sidelines for the next few weeks, with the defender out due to a knee injury he picked up in UCL play. The club will have to go without its starting left-back, so this is a rough loss for the club. The good news is the club does have a replacement to fill his spot, with Lucas Hernandez as a likely option, filling that spot until after the international break.
