Alejandro Balde’s return gives Barcelona a boost before PSG clash

Alejandro Balde is on track to make his return for Barcelona’s crucial Champions League clash against PSG, according to reports in Spain.

The 21-year-old full-back has been sidelined for three weeks but resumed full training with his teammates on Tuesday, offering hope to fans eager to see him back on the pitch.

While Balde is expected to sit out Barcelona’s midweek fixture against Real Oviedo, his recovery has been timed perfectly for the October 1 meeting with PSG. Manager Hansi Flick will welcome the news as the young defender’s pace and energy have been sorely missed in recent games.

Balde’s return could prove decisive as Barcelona aim to secure momentum in Europe. His absence left the squad short in defense, but training sessions this week suggest he is ready to compete at the highest level again.

Reports indicate Balde will be in strong contention for a starting role against PSG, giving Barcelona greater depth and confidence at a pivotal stage of the campaign.
