Official: PSG squad list vs Barcelona – winger returns from injury, three major absentees

With less than 12 hours left for the monumental encounter between Barcelona and PSG in the UEFA Champions League, the French champions have announced their squad list for the game.

Barcelona and PSG will be locking horns in the first leg of their quarterfinal tie at Parc des Princes later tonight.

While Barcelona have welcomed back the trio of Pedri, Andreas Christensen, and Frenkie de Jong from injury for the game, their hosts too have received a fresh fitness boost.

Bradley Barcola has recovered from the injury he suffered during the international break and is named in the squad by manager Luis Enrique.

However, Nordi Mukiele misses out after suffering a head injury over the weekend against Clermont while veteran defender Presnel Kimpembe is also not ready to make a return yet.

Achraf Hakimi is also a notable absentee for PSG, with the Moroccan right-back missing out through suspension.

It will be a special occasion for a certain Ousmane Dembele as he faces his former team ten months after securing a move to PSG. He, along with Kylian Mbappe, will pose the biggest threat for the Blaugrana tonight.

Another former Barcelona player, Arnau Tenas, also features in the squad.
