PARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain will be without star winger Khvitcha Kvaratskhelia for the Champions League group game at Barcelona on Wednesday.
But Vitinha, who came off late in the first half against Auxerre, and fellow midfielder João Neves — who missed the past two Ligue 1 games with a thigh injury — were both included in the PSG squad announced on Tuesday. Captain Marquinhos remained sidelined with a thigh muscle issue.
PSG faces Barcelona with a depleted forward line.
Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembélé and forward Désiré Doué were still recovering from injury sustained while playing for France this month. ___
