PSG will already be without Bradley Barcola and now have another attacking option out of the Liverpool tie.

The winger suffered a severe ligament sprain to his right ankle during the last‑16 demolition of Chelsea and has been ruled out for “several weeks,” putting his participation in both legs against Liverpool in serious doubt. Barcola scored in both games of that tie and has hit double figures across the season, so his absence robs PSG of pace, direct running and end product in wide areas – all qualities that caused Liverpool problems when the sides met last year.

The teenager picked up a right calf injury in the recent win away at Nice and will undergo treatment for the next two weeks, putting his availability for the Liverpool clash in jeopardy. An official club statement read: “After suffering an injury to his right calf during yesterday’s match against Nice, Senny Mayulu will undergo treatment for the next two weeks.” There is, however, some relief for Enrique in the shape of Fabian Ruiz.
