Costa Rican goalkeeper Keylor Navas and Italian half Marco Verratti will not playExcept for a huge surprise, with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the semifinal of the Champions League on Tuesday against Leipzig. But the Parisian club's medical services are trying to recover them in case the team led by Thomas Tuchel manages to qualify for the final, which will be played on August 23 in Da Luz.
Keylor Navas, who was injured in the quarterfinal match against Atalanta, suffers from a hamstring problem and everything indicates that Sergio Rico will have to replace him against Leipzig, on loan from PSG by Sevilla. Verratti suffers a leg injury.
According to the newspaper L'Équipe, in both cases under normal circumstances the recovery period would be three weeks, but in the case of a possible Champions League final, PSG tries to make both of them fit if Tuchel's men qualify this Mars by eliminating the Leipzig by Julian Nagelsmann.
