Three training sessions to prepare for a comeback. Three days after the defeat at home in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League against FC Barcelona (2-3), the PSG players returned to the PSG Campus and training this Saturday morning after a cleaning session Thursday and a day off Friday. During this session, Luis Enrique was able to support an entire group.
Wednesday against Barça, Presnel Kimpembe and Nordi Mukiele were missing. If the first should be absent for many more weeks, the former Montpellier defender resumed training with the group this Friday. Victim of a violent clash with the Clermont goalkeeper last Saturday, the right-back had to give up his place despite his desire to continue before passing examinations by a specialist mandated by the FFF on Monday. Still absent during Thursday’s session, he was present this Saturday morning with his partners.
The probable composition of PSG: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Marquinhos (cap.), Hernandez, Nuno Mendes – Zaïre-Emery, Ruiz, Vitinha – Dembélé – Barcola, Mbappé.
The Parisians will be entitled to a new session on Sunday morning at the PSG Campus and a final Monday late afternoon at the Montjuic stadium in Barcelona. Their departure for Catalonia is scheduled for Monday at 10 a.m. Before their final session Luis Enrique will answer questions from journalists alongside Achraf Hakimi, suspended during the first leg (2-3, last Wednesday).
