Barcelona’s Injured Players on the Road to Recovery Ahead of PSG Clas

With less than a month until Barcelona faces Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League quarterfinals, Xavi hopes to have some key players back from injury. The recent victory over Napoli came at a cost, as Pedri and De Jong were sidelined due to injuries sustained in a Liga match against Athletic Bilbao. Alongside them, Gavi, Balde, Ferran Torres, and Marcos Alonso also found themselves in the infirmary.

However, there’s optimism regarding the return of some of these players. De Jong, who suffered a sprained ankle, is expected to be available for both legs of the PSG tie after a month-long recovery period.

Pedri’s situation is being handled cautiously, but there’s a chance he could feature in the quarterfinals, with his muscle injury not as severe as initially feared.

Additionally, Ferran Torres and Marcos Alonso are nearing full fitness and could provide valuable support to the team.

While the likes of Balde and Gavi will continue their recovery from the sidelines, Barcelona remains hopeful of bolstering their squad for the crucial upcoming fixtures in both Europe and the league.
