PSG will face Montpellier Hérault in a league clash on 26th September. Lionel Messi is set to miss this game, making him miss the second game in a row due to a knee injury.
While the clash against Montpellier Hérault might not seem very scary, it is likely that Messi will have to sit out the Manchester City battle as well which is set for the 29th at the The Parc des Princes in a group stage battle of UEFA Champions League. Manchester City picked up a 4-1 victory on aggregate in last season’s Champion’s League semi-finals, so emotions are still raw is to say the least.
PSG has updated about Messi’s medical conditions saying- “Messi started running again today in line with his treatment protocol.” A re-evaluation is set for Sunday which will confirm whether or not Messi will be available for the clash against Man City.
