However, the European football governing body has confirmed they will not probe the matter - meaning the star forward is clear to face Bayern on Sunday, August 23, in Lisbon. The development will come as a sigh of relief for PSG boss Thomas Tuchel as the former Barcelona superstar remains pivotal in the club's European campaign. The French giants will be keen to win the continental title for the very first time in the club's history. But they will be wary of Bayern who have previously been tipped as clear favourites to emerge triumphant. The Bavarians have been brilliant in the campaign, dumping out Chelsea in the round of 16, before they hammered Barcelona 8-2 to set up a semi-final date with Lyon. They went on to dispatch the French side, with Arsenal reject Serge Gnabry striking twice to inspire the Bundesliga champions to the finals.
