Ousmane Dembélé could drop to the bench for Paris Saint-Germain’s fixture against AJ Auxerre on Friday night, **L’Équipe** understands.
Goncalo Ramos may be preferred up front this evening, whilst Désiré Doué could drop into the midfield, allowing Bradley Barcola to start on the left and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on the right for PSG. Doué would do so in order to compensate for the absences of Fabián Ruiz and Joao Neves.
With Warren Zaire-Emery coming into the midfield, too, it means that Illia Zabarnyi could start at right-back. Whilst Achraf Hakimi and Ibrahim Mbaye have both returned from AFCON, neither will be involved for PSG tonight.
Nuno Mendes, Lee Kang-in, and Quentin Ndjantou are all also out for _Les Parisiens_ as they look to return to winning ways following their midweek defeat to Sporting CP.
