PSG announced Tuesday that due to “a blow to his left knee” against Lyon on Sunday, the Argentine underwent an MRI that “confirmed signs of bone contusion.”
Messi already missed Wednesday’s trip to Metz, where PSG won 2-1.
Holder twice since he signed for the French club, Messi looks for his first goal outside of Barcelona. This Friday he did not appear in the 15 minutes that the press was able to follow PSG training.
Nor will the Italian Marco Verratti, with knee problems, and the Spanish Sergio Ramos, who has not yet made his debut with PSG, will be against Montpellier.
