Paris Saint-Germain will welcome Real Madrid to the Parc des Princes for their Round of 16 matchup in a couple of weeks. 

With the first-leg on the horizon, manager Carlo Ancelotti isn’t happy with how the matches are scheduled for his squad. Following their Copa del Rey win over Elche, it marked the sixth game in eighteen days. So Ancelotti let out a little frustration when he spoke with the media

“The calendar? What do you want me to tell you… We have a schedule that makes no sense. It has to change, that’s for sure. I hope those preparing the calendar will do their best to make it fairer for everyone,” Ancelotti said.

Furthermore, Real Madrid could have a thin squad as France will not allow unvaccinated athletes to enter the country.
