The Englishman has overseen six games involving the Ligue 1 giants (five wins and one draw) and was one of two English referees at the 2022 World Cup.
The Mancunian has overseen PSG on the European stage six times with the Ligue 1 giants yet to lose with the English official in charge winning five games (Juventus (2-1), Real Madrid (3-0), two against Borussia Dortmund (2-0 and 1-2) and Shakhtar Donetsk (2-0)) and drawing once, incidentally against Barça under his watch.
The 44-year-old has been in charge for four Barça games with the only win for the Catalan side under the guidance of Taylor coming this season in the 0-1 away win at Porto where Gavi was dismissed for two yellow cards in the final minutes of the match.
High profile
Taylor took charge of the 2023 Europa League final in Budapest as he oversaw Sevilla’s record seventh UEL title overcoming Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma in the final after a dramatic penalty shoot-out and was the man in the middle for the 2021 UEFA Nations League final between Spain and France.
The Manchester native was also one of the two English referees in action at the 2022 Qatar World Cup (along with Michael Oliver) with Taylor in charge for two group games and despite being in contention to oversee the final with The Times claiming that Taylor was unable to be chosen for the final due to the political tensions between the UK and Argentina as a result of the Falklands conflict in 1982.

Barca players have to be very careful with this referee, because he always give Barca so many card, and we Lewandowsky, Dejon, Felix, Yamal, Arajuo, all of them they are one card to get ban for another match, before all the yellow card eliminated from after quarter final
