PSG XI vs Bayern: Confirmed team news, starting lineup, latest injuries for Champions League final tonight

Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Keylor Navas has been passed fit to start tonight's Champions League final, but Marco Verratti misses out against Bayern Munich.

Navas was forced off against Atalanta with a thigh injury and subsequently missed the semi-final as former Fulham keeper Sergio Rico deputised.

Verratti has been struggling with a calf injury before a cameo against RB Leipzig has raised hopes that he will be fit to start but will have to settle for a place on the bench.

Mauro Icardi will also have to get comfy on the substitutes bench as Thomas Tuchel sticks with the front three which dismantled Leipzig.

Neymar impressed in a slightly withdrawn 'false nine' role in the semi-final, operating centrally to wide attackers Kylian Mbappe and Angel Di Maria, a formula Tuchel appears to have stuck with.

Layvin Kurzawa and Idrissa Gueye were fitness doubts ahead of the game and do take a place on the bench.

PSG confirmed XI (4-3-3): Navas; Kehrer, Silva, Kimpembe, Bernat; Herrera, Marquinhos, Paredes; Di Maria, Neymar, Mbappe

Subs: Rico, Bulka, Verratti, Choupo-Moting, Icardi, Sarabia, Kurzawa, Diallo, Draxler, Bakker, Gueye, Dagba
