Verratti is out of PSG key clash against Monaco after suffering a hip injury.
Although Christophe Galtier did not speak of an issue with the Italian midfielder during the pre-match press conference, Verratti did not figure on PSG’s list for the trip to the Principality.
The injury has been described as minor by the club, although it is now yet clear whether it endangers his participation in the Champions League against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
On a more positive note for PSG, Kimpembe has made his long-awaited return from injury, featuring in a squad for the first time since November.
The French centre-back, who has struggled with injuries throughout the campaign, suffered his latest setback just before the World Cup.
As expected, Kylian Mbappé and Lionel Messi were also absent from the squad list, but Achraf Hakimi, who was also a doubt, will be present at the Stade Louis II on Saturday.
