Big Blow for Luis Enrique and PSG: They Travel to Barcelona Without Four of Their Stars
PSG arrive at the Olímpic Lluis Companys with key absences, while Barcelona rub their hands ahead of the Champions League clash.
A Weakened PSG to Face Barça
Matchday 2 of the Champions League comes with bad news for Luis Enrique. The Spanish coach confirmed he will be without four key players for PSG’s trip to face FC Barcelona this Wednesday at the Estadi Olímpic Lluis Companys.
The most notable absences are Marquinhos, the defensive leader, along with three attacking threats: Ousmane Dembélé, Desiré Doué, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. While there was a chance some might recover in time, the coach opted not to take risks and left them all out of the squad.
Wednesday promises high drama: on one side, a PSG weakened in attack; on the other, a Barça eager to reaffirm their European credentials.
