Barcelona’s Alejandro Balde has returned to full training with the group, according to SPORT’s Carlos Monfort, and appears likely to make the squad for the PSG clash—though he’s expected to start on the bench.

Meanwhile, before Wednesday’s Champions League clash, PSG received an indirect warning from Barcelona manager Hansi Flick, who plans to lean on his midfield duo, Pedri and Frenkie de Jong.

“They are exceptional footballers and are very well connected,” Flick said (h/t Marca). “They know how they want to play, they know each other… it’s fantastic to see this connection. With this duo, it’s harder to press us, and it gives us a lot of possession, creates more space, and that’s the most important thing. I’m very proud of the team.”
