Barça’s squad for Wednesday’s opener against Paris FC isn’t at full strength — here’s who’s confirmed in and out.
Who’s ruled out
Vicky López and Kika Nazareth are both out with thigh injuries. Notably, López scored in Barça’s last meeting with Paris FC, so her absence is a real change to how that matchup looks this time around.
Who’s confirmed fit
Irene Paredes had been a doubt but has been passed fit to play.
How this affects the attack
Even with those absences, Barça’s front line isn’t short on options. Last season’s top scorer Ewa Pajor leads the attack, now joined by new signing Kerolin. Pajor has said the team’s goal this season is to reach the final in Warsaw, which gives some sense of how Barça are framing this campaign despite the early-season fitness setbacks.
What to watch for
Squad news can shift close to kickoff, especially with a player like Paredes who was only recently cleared. If you’re checking the lineup right before the match, it’s worth glancing at Barça’s official channels for the confirmed starting XI rather than assuming this list is final.
