Paris Saint-Germain has restored the services of its star Marco Asensio after a period of absence due to injury, making him fit to participate against Barcelona in the Champions League quarter-finals.
The former Real Madrid star has been absent from his French team since the beginning of March after suffering an injury to his right knee, and there were doubts about the possibility of his absence from the upcoming summit against Barcelona.
According to French media, Asensio returned to training during the international break, and is ready to return and participate in matches.
The Spanish international will start preparing for the Barcelona match by participating in the French football Clasico, which will bring together PSG and Marseille, scheduled for next Sunday.
Coach Luis Enrique himself hopes to rely on Asensio in the Barcelona match, especially after the injury of winger Barcola during the international break and the difficulty of him playing at least in the first leg.
Asensio has great experience in facing Barcelona, particularly thanks to his long experience with Real Madrid. He has previously won 8 times in El Clásico, compared to 11 defeats, and scored two goals and made two assists.
This season, Asensio scored 5 goals and made 4 assists with Paris Saint-Germain in all tournaments, but he only played 34 minutes in the Champions League for various reasons, the most important of which were successive injuries.
