Monaco could be without Tiemoué Bakayoko for Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final after teammate Kamil Glik broke his nose.

The training ground accident happened on Friday and Bakayoko has been diagnosed with a fractured nose.

He is therefore out of this afternoon’s Ligue 1 game against Toulouse FC.

French reports suggest it’s a race against time to get him match-fit ahead of the first leg of their Champions League semi-final with Juventus.
