Francesco Farioli has given an update on his squad two days ahead of Lille, who kick off their L1 campaign this Friday at 21:00. "There's a good chance that Hicham will be in the squad. He trained a little this morning (Wednesday). We're assessing the situation and we'll see between now and tomorrow," explained the Aiglons coach, before mentioning another midfielder's return: "We hope to have Alexis Claude-Maurice for the Lorient game (on August 20 at 15:00)."

Antoine Mendy "is still out of action" after undergoing knee surgery in June.
