'Maybe we will only have 11 players available': PSG boss Thomas Tuchel facing selection nightmare for Manchester United Champions League clash as he could be missing up to EIGHT first-team stars

Thomas Tuchel has given a blunt assessment of Paris Saint-Germain's injury crisis ahead of their Champions League clash with Manchester United next week.

The Ligue 1 side could be without up to eight players for the game in Paris with Mauro Icardi, Julian Draxler and Marquinhos all out injured while the club have also been affected by coronavirus.

PSG made the final of the competition last season, losing out to Bayern Munich, but have been drawn in a tough group with United RB Leipzig and Istanbul Basaksehir.

Mauro Icardi and Julian Draxler have both been ruled out of the game with different injuries

Tuchel claimed he could have just 11 players fit for the game against United.
