The forward got injured at the weekend and will miss the first leg in Barcelona

According to RMC Sport, Paris Saint-Germain will be without Angel Di Maria for next week's Champions League last 16 first leg game against Barcelona at Camp Nou.

Di Maria had to be taken off in the Classique win over Marseille at the weekend and Mauricio Pochettino will have to do without him for a little while, although the injury is not thought to be serious.

However, the French club have had better news regarding midfielder Marco Verratti who also got injured in the Marseille game.

Verratti's hip injury is not as bad as anticipated and, while he's likely to rest for the midweek French Cup game against Ligue 2 side Caen, he could return against Nice at the weekend.

PSG will then turn their attention to the Barça tie, with the second leg to be played in Paris in March.
