There is reportedly one doubt for PSG in the Champions League Final against Inter, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia returns to training.
The showdown is in Munich on Saturday at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT, 21.00 CET).
A winner will be decided after 90 minutes, extra time or even a penalty shoot-out if needed.
PSG won the Coupe de France at the weekend to keep them on track for the Treble, having already secured the Ligue 1 title several weeks ago.
Kvaratskhelia was originally named in the starting XI for that Final against Stade Reims, then dropped to the bench and eventually left the stadium before the match was over.
It was later reported he was suffering from an intense migraine, but the former Napoli star was back in training today and is not expected to be in doubt for the Inter clash.
According to Sky Sport Italia, there is one major doubt for coach Luis Enrique in picking his PSG starting XI, and it is between Desire Doué and Bradley Barcola.
The latter is the favourite, although Doué already made his mark in the Champions League with three goals.
The lone injury absentee therefore is Presnel Kimpembe, who has been battling an Achilles tendon issue for a long time.
As for Inter, there are precious few doubts here, with Lautaro Martinez, Davide Frattesi, Yann Bisseck and Benjamin Pavard all in full training.
Even though Nicola Zalewski has been stepping in recently, the 3-5-2 formation should remain intact with Denzel Dumfries and Federico Dimarco as the wing-backs, supporting Martinez and Marcus Thuram upfront.
PSG vs. Inter probable line-ups
PSG (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes; Joao Neves, Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz; Barcola, Dembelé, Kvaratskhelia
Inter (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, Bastoni, Acerbi; Dumfries, Mkhitaryan, Barella, Calhanoglu, Dimarco; Thuram, Lautaro Martinez
