They are therefore twenty-four to have taken the direction of Madrid (Spain) this Tuesday morning in anticipation of the shock of the knockout stages of the Champions League against Real, Wednesday evening (9 p.m.).
However, they will only be twenty-three on the match sheet.
And for good reason: Sergio Ramos, already forfeited due to recalcitrant calf pain, made the trip at his request.
Defender of Real for seventeen seasons, the Andalusian wanted to make the trip with the Parisians to bring them experience and advice.

The other big name on this trip: Kylian Mbappé.
Touched in the left foot Monday morning during a shock in training, the Frenchman remains uncertain for the European poster.
The striker will be reassessed by the various Parisian staffs during the day in Madrid.
It remains to be seen whether he will participate in collective training this Tuesday evening (6 p.m.) at the Santiago-Bernabeu stadium.
The decision to play or not should be made in the evening or only on Wednesday.
Finally, Ander Herrera is absent from the trip, affected by an infection in the right eye.
On the other hand, Leandro Paredes and Achraf Hakimi are present.
Juan Bernat, unqualified, Layvin Kurzawa (low back pain) and young Bitshiabu, Gharbi, Bitumazala, Franchi or Lavallée remain in Paris.
The Parisian group must land at the end of the morning in Madrid, where it will join the Eurostar Towers hotel, north of the Spanish capital.
Mauricio Pochettino and Neymar are expected at a press conference at 5:15 p.m.
