Bradley Barcola (23, forward), who missed the match against Olympique de Marseille last weekend, returned to full training with Paris Saint-Germain on Thursday. This is good news for Luis Enrique and PSG, who are preparing for a series of important matches in Ligue 1 and Europe. Starting, of course, with their home game against Auxerre on Saturday (matchday 6 of Ligue 1), while also keeping an eye on the match against FC Barcelona on Wednesday (matchday 2 of the Champions League).
Barcola’s absence against OM was a blow for Paris Saint-Germain, as the winger has become a valuable asset in Luis Enrique’s attacking rotation, especially given the injuries to Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé. His quick return to training suggests it was a minor issue and reassures the club about his availability for upcoming matches.
Since joining Paris in the summer of 2023, the former Lyon player has showcased his explosiveness and ability to create openings, establishing himself as a credible option to lead the Parisian attack. With PSG playing matches in both Ligue 1 and the Champions League, having a fit and available Barcola gives the Spanish coach an additional attacking weapon, capable of breaking down opposing defenses.
