PSG starts playing on Wednesday in the French league, but Lionel Messi would play again on January 11, when his team faces Angers for the 18th
Messi continues on vacation in Rosario, where he spends the year-end festivities, and at the Parisian institution they await his effective reinstatement to the squad as of January 3.
For their part, the Frenchman Kylian Mbappé and the Brazilian Neymar would be summoned by coach Christopher Galtier for Wednesday’s game against Racing Strasbourg, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Although DT has not yet confirmed the call, it is expected that both Mbappé and Neymar, who have been practicing with the PSG squad since last week, are “ready” to play their first minutes since the World Cup ended.
Mbappé returned to training last Wednesday, much earlier than expected, after having lost the World Cup final against Argentina and Neymar did so a day later.
PSG is the leader of Ligue 1 with 41 points and five ahead of Lens. The matches to be played next Wednesday are: Ajaccio-Angers, Troyes-Nantes, Auxerre-Monaco; Clermont-Lille, Brest-Olympique Lyon and PSG-Racing Strasbourg.
