Lionel Messi Ruled Out Of Reims Clash; PSG Suffer Huge Loss
Lionel Messi’s calf injury means that he won’t be able to play for Paris Saint-Germain this weekend against Reims. Lionel Messi is ruled out against Reims.
The Argentinian star scored a great goal, but he had to leave the field late in Wednesday’s 1-1 draw with Benfica in the Champions League.
Messi will now miss the trip to Reims, but PSG will hope to have him back for Tuesday’s match against Benfica at home.
The club said in a statement that the 35-year-old player “remained in treatment after reassuring exams” and will go through more tests on Sunday.
The manager, Christophe Galtier, said that Kylian Mbappé is also hurt, but he will still travel with the rest of the team.
In his press conference on Friday, he said, “There will be changes.”
Leo Messi won’t be able to play in Reims, but he will start training again on Sunday morning. Kylian Mbappé is sick with angina, but he will still go to Reims.
After a bad season last year, Messi has been playing well for the French team that won the title last year.
In 13 games this season, he has scored eight goals and set up eight more. He is part of a strong forward line that also includes Kylian Mbappé and Neymar.
Messi said this week that the World Cup in Qatar next year will be his last. “This is definitely my last World Cup. He told Argentine journalist Sebastian Vignolo that the choice had already been made.
It’s thought that the playmaker wants to go back to Barcelona once his contract with PSG is up, and the Catalan giants have the money to bring him back to the Nou Camp.
But he needs to fix his relationship with Barcelona’s president, Joan Laporta, and get past a number of other problems before the move can happen.
After the World Cup, Messi is expected to make a final decision about his club.
