Luis Enrique wary of Paris Saint-Germain threat

Barcelona manager Luis Enrique has insisted that Zlatan Ibrahimovic's absence from Paris Saint-Germain's squad for tomorrow night's Champions League meeting between the pair "does not change anything".

The 32-year-old striker, who spent two years at the Camp Nou before leaving the club in 2011, has been ruled out with a heel injury.

However, Enrique is wary of PSG's other threats, saying that the French champions have enough options to make up for the loss.

"Ibrahimovic not playing doesn't change anything," Goal.com quotes the Barca boss as saying. "He would be an an important loss for any team, but nothing changes in the way I'm approaching the game. They will still be a fearsome opponent and they have other resources in the squad.

"PSG are a team that can come and bring the game to us easily. They have a strong team and if they play attacking football then so be it, that's good. They are certainly candidates to win the Champions League but so are we and we have to be ready to deal with the situation, whether they come to us or we go to them.

"This game is likely to have some impact on the outcome of the group, but it's too early to say. Of course finishing top is important, but we must see what results we get from every game. Theoretically we are the two favourites of the group, but to beat PSG we must be at our best and give a wonderful showing of ourselves."

Ibrahimovic has made six appearances for PSG so far this season, scoring five goals.
