Fabian Ruiz (29), João Neves (21), and Vitinha (25) are expected to be available for Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League clash against FC Barcelona, according to RMC Sport. However, Désiré Doué (20) will miss the match (as confirmed by Loic Tanzi), while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (24) remains a doubt after missing training.
RMC Sport :
Good news for Fabian Ruiz and João Neves, who should be fit in time to be included in the squad for the match against Barcelona. The same applies to Vitinha, despite being substituted as a precaution during the last match against AJ Auxerre. @RMCsport #RMCLive #FCBPSG
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia did not participate in training this Monday at 5 PM at the PSG training center. The Georgian player could be in the squad to face Barça, but the Paris club’s coaching staff will not take any risks.”
L’Equipe :
“Désiré Doué ne sera pas du déplacement à Barcelone ce mercredi pour affronter le Barça mercredi pour le compte de la deuxième journée de phase de ligue en Ligue des champions.
Le Français n’est pas suffisamment remis et le PSG ne compte prendre aucun risque dans une période compliquée.”
This news comes at just the right time for Paris Saint-Germain, who are preparing for their crucial trip to the Camp Nou. The return of Fabián Ruiz, always valuable for providing balance in midfield, together with the availability of João Neves and Vitinha, is a source of reassurance for Luis Enrique. These three profiles offer essential tactical variety, combining ball retention with forward projection. However, the absence of Désiré Doué deprives Paris of a player capable of bringing pace and freshness down the flanks.
As for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, his case will be decided at the last moment. The staff will take no risks with the Georgian winger, fully aware of his importance over the long season. In a clash against Barça where every detail will matter, Luis Enrique can still take comfort in having a solid core back in midfield. He will take no chances, and the coming hours should confirm or deny the encouraging news reported on Monday.
