As Paris Saint-Germain prepares to take on Inter Milan in the Champions League final, UEFA regulations state that yellow cards are wiped clean after the quarterfinals. This means that no player will miss the final due to yellow cards accumulated earlier in the tournament. The only way a player could be suspended for the final is through a red card received in the semifinals, and fortunately, there were no such incidents in either semifinal match. This policy aims to ensure that all crucial players are available to influence the outcome of this pivotal match. Below is a list of players from both teams who are at risk of suspension before the Champions League title showdown.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan
Kristjan Asllani
Asllani has averaged one yellow card for every five games this season. His position as a defensive midfielder means he frequently engages in tough defensive battles, increasing his chances of receiving cards.
Yann Bisseck
Bisseck has accumulated four yellow cards in 27 appearances. His central defensive role often puts him in situations where he risks suspension.
Benjamin Pavard
Pavard has also received four yellow cards in 23 matches, which could lead to a suspension. His aggressive playing style in defense often results in disciplinary actions.
Nicolò Barella
Barella has four yellow cards in 34 matches, putting him one card away from suspension. His extensive movement on the field often leads to fouls.
Denzel Dumfries
Dumfries has received four yellow cards in 29 matches. As a right-back, his aggressive style often leads to fouls.
Alessandro Bastoni
Bastoni is also at risk of suspension with four yellow cards in 33 matches. His involvement in the game often leads to bold challenges.
Achraf Hakimi
Hakimi has also received four yellow cards in 25 matches. His position as a right-back often leads to opportunities for fouls.
