Barça-PSG: Verratti should start

2021-02-15T19:10:52.109Z


The Italian midfielder participated in the light training session of PSG this Monday at Camp Nou. It should start on Tuesday evening.


Mauricio Pochettino is reassured on one point: the state of form of Marco Verratti.

The Italian midfielder went on a second day of collective training without apparent discomfort to his right hip, bruised in a collision with Dimitri Payet during the clasico in Marseille (2-0).

More than a week after this rough contact, Verratti is doing better and should start this Tuesday night at Camp Nou in Barcelona for the knockout stages of the Champions League.

The staff of Pochettino had concocted a light session on Monday on the lawn of the Blaugranas for the final session before the shock.

The titular players last Saturday against Nice (2-1) and the substitutes started with differentiated warm-ups.

Verratti was in the second group, as was Rafinha, back with the squad after two absences.

The PSG staff did not make a tactical set-up.

The most solicited players, like Paredes, did not push their bodies.

In total, the session only lasted about fifty minutes.

At the end, Pochettino and Kimpembe had a long discussion before all these beautiful people returned to the locker room.

The probable eleven:

Navas - Florenzi, Marquinhos (cap.), Kimpembe, Kurzawa - Gueye, Verratti, Paredes - Sarabia (or Kean), Icardi, Mbappé.
