“Donnarumma resumed training during the week and is fit to travel to face Arsenal.
Vitinha should be in the squad
Asensio is also in the return phase and could be in the squad. This could also be the case for Mendes.”
Expectations for this big match are high, but PSG are suffering from a number of worrying injuries. The return of Gianluigi Donnarumma, their first-choice goalkeeper, as well as Vitinha and Marco Asensio, is important as PSG are to go to the Emirate Stadium and take on one of Europe’s finest teams. If Nuno Mendes can also come back from his illness, it’s a real plus for this left side (right with Bukayo Sako at Arsenal).
It’s not certain whether they’ll be at 100%, but if Luis Enrique brings them in, it’s because they’ll be ready to play, for half-time, the end of the match or more. This match will be crucial for PSG if they are to finish in the top 8 in the first phase of the new Champions League.
