Victor Osimhen will certainly not be available for selection when Lille travel to the French capital to take on Paris Saint-Germain on Friday, November 22, their first match after the third international break of the 2019-2020 season.

The Disciplinary Committee of the Ligue de Football Professionnel has informed that Lille will be without the Nigeria international for the matchday 14 fixture at the Parc des Princes (Paris).

Osimhen has been suspended for one game after picking up his third yellow card in eight matches against Marseille on November 2.

Previously the former Wolfsburg starlet was cautioned against Angers SCO (Sept 13) and Nimes Olympique (Oct 6) at Stade Pierre-Mauroy.

Because the ban comes into effect from Tuesday, November 12, 2019 at 0:00, Osimhen can feature for Lille in their game week 13 tie against Metz on Saturday and manager Galtier confirmed at the pre-match press conference that he is available foe selection.

This season, the Super Eagles rising star has found the net nine times across all competitions, most recently against Valencia in the UEFA Champions League, and has two assists to his name.
