Barcelona lands in Paris for the PSG trip on Tuesday in the UCL

FC Barcelona are already in Paris for Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League showdown with Paris Saint-Germain. The Blaugrana delegation touched down this Monday shortly after 13:30, after delays caused by fog at Charles de Gaulle and a late arrival of the aircraft.

Two setbacks on the way

As Mundo Deportivo reports, the team had been scheduled to depart at 10:30, but weather and technical issues forced them to wait. The problem comes just days after the ordeal in Seville: after beating Real Betis (2-5) on Saturday, the squad stayed almost two hours on the plane due to storms, spending the night in Andalusia before returning on Sunday.

With the trip complete, Barcelona can focus on the 21:00 match. They will speak to the media at 17:45 with Hansi Flick and Pedri, before their final training session at the Parc des Princes starting 18:30. Flick has missing players Jules Koundé, Eric Garcia and Andreas Christensen, while Àlex Campos is the standout inclusion in the squad. PSG currently lead the league phase with 10-9 (one goal more than Barcelona).
