Both sides are entering this contest dealing with injuries to key players. Ahead of Barcelona’s LaLiga fixture against Real Sociedad, manager Hansi Flick was asked about losing Joan García and Raphinha.
“These things can happen and we have to adapt,” Flick told reporters. “It’s a challenge, but we’ve got a fantastic squad and we’re focusing on that. We can only control what’s in our own hands. We don’t want to worry about who’s missing. The players available will do a great job.”
Barcelona will be without goalkeeper Joan García for four to six weeks after he undergoes arthroscopy, ruling him out of the upcoming clash with PSG, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Moreover, Romano reported that Raphinha suffered a new injury on Thursday and is expected to be out for roughly three weeks, ruling him out of Barcelona’s match against PSG.
