​PSG stunned as defender Aurier refused visa by UK authorities for Arsenal clash

The full-back was sentenced to two months in jail in September for elbowing a police officer.

"Paris St-Germain is stunned by this incomprehensible situation that attacks the very integrity of the Uefa Champions League," the club said.
