And another PSG game without Lionel Messi (34) …
The superstar does not get going with his new club. An injury throws him back longer than expected and prevents him from playing for the star troupe from Paris at Girondins Bordeaux on Saturday (kick-off: 9 p.m.).
Is the superstar hurt worse?
The Argentine is suffering from knee and thigh pain, as the Parisians say by the medical department. Exactly how bad these are was not known.
The only fact is: Messi was already substituted at halftime in the game against Lille last Friday and also missed the Champions League game on Wednesday at RB Leipzig (2-2). Now the renewed failure. It is possible that the injury is worse than the Sheikh Club officially wants to admit.
Curious: Despite his complaints, Messi has been called up for Argentina’s internationals next week.
PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino (49) had indicated that Messi would probably fly to the national team to have investigations carried out there to see whether he could be used.
Since his sensational move from Barcelona in the summer, Messi has only scored three goals and eight appearances. In Ligue 1 (5 appearances) he is still waiting for his first goal.
