Lionel Messi will return to action for Paris Saint Germain.
Paris Saint-Germain coach Christophe Galtier has hinted that Lionel Messi will be fit to play in the derby against Marseille on Sunday.
Messi missed the last games against Reims and Benfica in Ligue 1 and the Champions League respectively due to a calf injury.
The French champions hope to have him fit for Le Classique against rivals Marseille on Sunday and Galtier is optimistic about his condition.
“Leo trained this morning, normally with the group. He did the whole session and then we will wait to see how he reacts in the session tomorrow morning. But right now I’m talking to you: yes. [I can rely on Messi]”.
Messi has been a crucial player for Galtier’s side this season, scoring eight goals and registering as many assists in 13 games in all competitions.
The match between Paris Saint Germain – Marseille takes place on Sunday, starting at 20:45./
