Munich (AP) - Paris Saint-Germain has left the use of captain Marquinhos open before the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League against FC Bayern.
The decision will be made on match day, said coach Mauricio Pochettino on Monday in Paris.
It is also unclear whether Marco Verratti and Alessandro Florenzi, who have returned after corona infections, will play in the top football class on Tuesday (9 p.m. / Sky).
That will also be decided on match day, said Pochettino.
Mauro Icardi is not there.
After the 3: 2 last week in Munich, PSG's prospects of advancing in the final pairing of the previous year are dazzling.
But Bayern are "the best team in the world at the moment," said Pochettino.
"Bavaria is still the favorite."
The PSG coach said nothing about goalkeeper Keylor Navas, who was replaced at break in the 4-1 win against Racing Strasbourg.
At the weekend there was talk of a precautionary measure.
Verratti and Florenzi were missing from Pochettino's team, the successor to Thomas Tuchel, who was dismissed at the end of last year, in the first leg.
Marquinhos had been replaced after half an hour in this game.
«We all know its qualities.
He's the captain of the team, ”said his colleague Presnel Kimpembe, who then took over the captain's armband.
"If he can't be there, we will of course miss him."
