Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 62790, member: 636"] Paris Saint-Germain will play Barcelona on Wednesday without winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia after the club confirmed the 24-year-old Georgia international sustained a suspected thigh injury during Saturday's Ligue 1victory over Auxerre. The Champions League holders already face significant absences with Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele, forward Desire Doue and defender Marquinhos sidelined. Manager Luis Enrique selected midfielders Vitinha and Joao Neves for the match against his former club as a player and coach. PSG's European campaign has faced disruption from multiple injuries after finishing last season with a Club World Cup final loss to Chelsea in mid-July. Dembele and Doue have remained unavailable since early September. The club enters the league stage fixture with a depleted squad as they attempt to navigate the opening rounds of continental competition. [/QUOTE]
