Ghana forward Majeed Waris still sidelined as Lorient play guest to Nice in France

Ghana striker Abdul Majeed Waris is still out with injury and will miss Lorient's away clash with OGC Nice in the French Ligue 1 on Saturday night. 

Lorient manager Sylvain Ripoll is travelling his third game without the Black Stars forward who has four (4) league games this season for the 'Oranges'.

The 24-year-old had to be replaced in the 53rd minute after he picked up a thigh injury.

Though the former Swedish Allsvenskan top-scorer has resumed light training, Lorient could not include him in their squad for the game.

He has previously played and scored 9 league goals for Valenciennes.

Here is the Lorient squad for the game as officially announced by the club on Friday evening.

Squad : Lecomte, Chaigneau - Paye, Gassama, Koné, Touré, Karamoko, Bellugou, Le Goff, Guerreiro - Barthelmé, Jouffre, Ndong, Mesloub, Abdullah, Philippoteaux - Jeannot, Moukandjo, Traroré
