Florenzi and Verratti both are a part of the Italian line-up.

The tie is a rematch of last season’s final, which Bayern won 1-0.

Florenzi “will therefore respect the isolation and is subject to the appropriate health protocol”, said PSG saying that “the player has been in isolation for several days as a precaution”.

The full-back, on loan from Roma, was not on the team sheet for Saturday’s 1-0 defeat to Lille in Ligue 1.

In his absence, coach Mauricio Pochettino’s options at right back include German Thilo Kehrer and Frenchman Colin Dagba.
