PSG started trembling. Lionel Messi, who was recently crowned world champion, was also the protagonist on Wednesday after his brother’s scathing remarks against Barcelona also caused panic in Paris Saint-Germain before the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 match against Bayern Munich.
And the French newspaper L’Equipe reported that the Argentine player suffered from a hamstring strain in the French Cup match, which ended with Paris Saint-Germain’s defeat by Marseille (2-1), as he left the competition.
As confirmed by the Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the former Barcelona player will not travel with the team to face Monaco in the French League on Saturday, as he will rest to increase his chances of reaching the most important confrontation next Tuesday against Bayern Munich.
In any case, the confrontation with Paris Saint-Germain will be difficult for the Parisian team, as Mbappe will almost certainly be absent from it after his injury against Montpellier. His presence in the Champions League is not ruled out, but if he does, he will be a substitute.
That’s not all. Neymar will not be at his best either, because he has not recovered from his ankle injury 100% after the injury he suffered during the World Cup in Qatar. Since then, the Brazilian has not performed so convincingly for Paris Saint-Germain.
