Thierry, having seen a number of reentries in the past under mostly night time conditions, I would say that if it occurs with the Sun low on the horizon you might have a chance. Otherwise you would have to be quite lucky to see it with the Sun considerably higher up in the sky and best from perhaps a high altitude location.

 Hello
every morning at the end of the week, Tiangong will be making several 
daytime passes over Southern Europe, and I was wondering if its 
reentry could be visible in daylight. Does anyone has an opinion?
Barcelona or Roma may be a nice destination for the week-end, all the 
more if there is a (small) chance to see Tiangong :-)
Thanks!
