“Messi trained yesterday and today. He was in his country celebrating and we wanted him to recover well at home with his family. He is not going to play tomorrow, I discussed it with him. We want him to be ready for the next game”Galtier explained at a press conference.
In addition, he gave his opinion on the level of Rosario in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar that led him to win the World Cup with the Argentine National Team: “He had an extraordinary World Cup, where he made an enormous physical effort. We are going to see how he is and obviously we want him to be available for the next game”.
Galtier acknowledged that “everyone is very happy to have him back”, referring to his teammates and all the club staff, who received him in a very good way on Wednesday, although he stressed that he has doubts as to whether the captain of the national team should being honored at the PSG stadium for the World Cup achievement.
“I don’t think there is a need to celebrate in Messi’s name. He is a world champion PSG player, we are very lucky to have a player like him. The next game will be a full stadium and I hope our team will celebrate it. fans”he added.
In this way, the 35-year-old forward, like Nicolás Tagliafico, who also plays for France but at Olympique de Lyon, could be the only members of La Scaloneta not to be honored on their return to official matches at the stadium.
For now, Messi would finally reappear next Wednesday, January 11, against Angers, at the Parque de los Príncipes stadium, for the eighteenth date of Ligue 1. Although a tribute has not been confirmed, everything will depend on the determination made by Al Khelaïfi -owner of the Parisian entity- and Luis Campos – sports director- in the coming days.
