Paris Saint-Germain will welcome FC Barcelona for the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal tie on Wednesday at the Parc des Princes. While the match is still three days away, the capital club might have made a decision on their attack.
Barcelona probably knows that PSG’s front three will consist of Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé. However, what they and many others might not know is who manager Luis Enrique will choose to go with those two players.
According to Le Parisien, Kang-in Lee will start alongside Mbappé and Dembélé against Barcelona. The 22-year-old came over from La Liga last summer from Mallorca, so he’s probably familiar with playing against the Spanish giants.
The French media outlet adds that Lee has the edge over Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos to start against Barcelona in Enrique’s staff as of now. Still, the report stresses that nothing is 100 percent decided yet.

Enrique will need to get the lineup right and make proper adjustments if needed as he hopes that the Parisians secure an advantage heading into the second leg.
