AS Monaco could have Ansu Fati and Folarin Balogun available for Friday night’s trip to RC Lens, according to L’Équipe.

The weekend draw with RC Strasbourg Alsace brought setbacks for Filipe Luís’s side. Academy graduate Anis Soubeir sustained an early ankle injury and is set to miss three weeks.

Stanis Idumbo also emerged with a psoas issue, leaving his participation against Les Sang et Or in doubt.

Neither Fati nor Balogun has played a minute for Les Monégasques this season. Fati was injured in pre-season, while Balogun carried a minor knee issue during the FIFA World Cup and has since worked on his fitness.

Luís has suggested the USMNT forward might only be ready after the international break, yet his comeback could arrive sooner than first thought.
