Liverpool fans have every reason to feel uneasy right now… because a new update has just shifted the atmosphere ahead of a huge clash.
PSG handed a big boost before facing Liverpool
Just hours before traveling for the showdown, there’s been a significant twist…
The French winger has now returned to full team training after spending weeks out with an ankle injury he suffered during PSG’s convincing 3–0 win in the previous round. The update was confirmed early Tuesday morning—and suddenly, the tie feels far less straightforward.
Will Barcola play against Liverpool?
Here’s where it gets intriguing…
Although he’s back in training, it’s still uncertain whether he’ll be fit enough for the first leg. The PSG manager kept things vague when asked, saying there’s no need to rush him and that recovery remains the priority.
That response suggests caution—but also keeps the possibility open.
Even if he misses the first leg, a return for the game at Anfield could pose a serious threat to Liverpool.
Why Liverpool should be concerned
Barcola’s impact shouldn’t be underestimated…
The 23-year-old has been one of Ligue 1’s standout performers this season, delivering top-level attacking displays:
• Among the league’s best wingers
• Outstanding at creating chances and beating defenders
• A constant danger in the final third
His numbers put him right up there with the elite attackers in France, which explains why Liverpool have reportedly been monitoring him closely.
Transfer possibility?
There’s also growing speculation linking him with a move to Liverpool this summer. His speed, direct style, and attacking flair would suit their system perfectly.
However, prising him away from PSG will be far from simple.
Final thought
With kickoff fast approaching, this latest development adds even more tension to an already massive European encounter.
Will he make a surprise appearance?
Or is this just a glimpse of the threat Liverpool could face later?
Either way, Liverpool can’t afford to switch off—not for a moment.
