PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino confirms Angel Di Maria to miss first leg against Barcelona

Angel Di Maria suffered a muscle injury against Marseille over the weekend.

It's 'over' for Di Maria to feature against the Catalans in the Champions League next week.

"Yes, it's over for Angel Di Maria [to play against Barcelona]," Paris Saint-Germain head coach Mauricio Pochettino told a press conference on Tuesday, as quoted by Goal.

"We will communicate again in a week to see where we are."

The Argentine limped off the pitch in PSG's 2-0 win at Marseille due to a muscle injury over the weekend. Di Maria apparently won't even travel to Barcelona for the first-leg clash of the Champions League last-16 round on February 16.

The 32-year-old, however, is likely to be up and running again when the Catalans will travel to Paris for the return encounter on March 10.
