Paris Saint-Germain have received a major boost ahead of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against Liverpool, with Bradley Barcola returning to the squad after injury.
The French forward had been sidelined for around a month after suffering a serious ankle ligament injury during PSG’s last-16 clash against Chelsea. His absence saw him miss several club matches as well as France international friendlies.
Barcola’s return comes at a crucial moment, as PSG travel to Anfield holding a 2-0 advantage from the first leg. His pace and attacking threat are expected to give PSG more options as they aim to secure qualification to the next stage of the competition.
The Ligue 1 champions will be hoping his comeback strengthens their attacking depth as they face a difficult away fixture against a strong Liverpool side under pressure to overturn the deficit.
