The Brazilian will not get the chance to face his former side after all

Neymar will miss Wednesday's reunion with Barcelona in the Champions League after Paris Saint-Germain confirmed the Brazilian will not be fit to face his old side.

PSG go into the second leg of the Champions League tie with a 4-1 lead thanks to Kylian Mbappe's hat-trick at Camp Nou.

However, as was the case in Barcelona, they will do so without Neymar, who injured his thigh in the game before the trip to Catalonia in February.

Neymar has returned to light training but PSG are against taking any risks and have revealed he will not make his comeback against his old employers.

The French side are in a strong position in the tie and feel caution is the best approach going into the final stretch of the campaign.
