Barcelona's trip to Paris Saint-Germain has faced another delay due to weather conditions preventing the plane from taking off on time ahead of their UEFA Champions League clash on Tuesday.


Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo" reported that the heavy fog at Charles de Gaulle Airport, along with the delayed arrival of the plane designated to transport the team, caused the postponement of the departure time for the Barcelona delegation led by Juan Laporta.


The team's flight was scheduled to depart at 10:30 AM Egyptian time, but the flight was delayed for more than an hour, while other flights heading to Paris through Orly Airport experienced delays of up to an hour and a half.


This disruption comes after a challenging journey for FC Barcelona on Saturday, following their victory over Real Betis. The team remained on the plane for two hours due to storms that hit Barcelona, before being forced to spend the night in Sevilla.


Despite arriving late in the French capital, Barcelona still aims to hold Pedri and coach Hans Flick's press conference at the scheduled time of 6:45 PM, before the team conducts its final training session at Parc des Princes in preparation for their match against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday, where both teams will compete for the top spot in the UEFA Champions League standings.
