Messi’s dreaded return to France. So his teammates welcomed him

It may not have been a warm welcome, but Messi’s team-mates have shown they have character and wish their colleague success. The Argentinian star joined the team later. Messi has had an amazing break from manager Christophe Galtier as he captained the world champions.

On Wednesday morning, Messi arrived at PSG training ground to be greeted by a cheering crowd of teammates and club staff cheering. When the 35-year-old passed it, he received a small trophy from the hands of sporting director Luis Campos.

Messi greeted Neymar, Nuno Mendes and Carlos Soler with a smile. However, the disappointed star of the French squad, Kylian Mbappé, was absent.

Champions Paris Saint-Germain have played two league games without Messi so far. With difficulty, they beat relegation-threatened Strasbourg 2:1, and on New Year’s Day they lost 1:3 to second-placed Lens in a round-robin round. The Argentine champion could theoretically play on Friday in the French Cup against third division Chateauroux, the next championship match will be played between the leaders on Wednesday 11 January in Angers.
