April 03, (THEWILL) – Sergio Ramos has been named to Paris Saint-squad Germain’s for their match against Lorient on Sunday night, after missing the previous two months due to a calf injury.
The Spain icon has made only four Ligue 1 appearances since joining from Real Madrid in the summer, with only two as part of their starting XI.
He last appeared in PSG’s 4-0 win against Reims in January, when he scored his first goal for the club, and Les Parisiens confirmed on Sunday that Ramos was in the squad for their evening encounter.
Meanwhile, Argentine Angel Di Maria will miss out owing to a muscle ailment, while Marco Verratti is expected to begin training this week but is not included in the squad.
Key players like Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi, and Neymar are all featured as PSG looks to extend their advantage at the top of Ligue 1. Their lead over second-placed Rennes is currently 12 points, though Marseille might close the gap to nine points if they win against Saint-Etienne before PSG plays Lorient.
PSG sporting director Leonardo recently revealed that Ramos’ signing had not gone “as imagined” despite the fact that the 36-year-old still has a year left on the contract he signed in the summer.
The French giants have only the Ligue 1 championship to play for after being eliminated from both the Coupe de France and the Champions League in humiliating fashion.
