The Argentine coach, Mauricio Pochettino, has set a date for Messi’s appearance, which may be before the international break.
In an interview with Argentine network ESPN, Pochettino said, “It was a good week for Leo in training. Next week will be long, but things will be fine. We hope he will be with us and participate from the beginning.”
Paris Saint-Germain will visit Reims on Sunday in the fourth round of the French championship before the international break.
The Argentine coach said about Messi’s choice of next stop: “I have not yet spoken with the Argentine national team. But they know that I support his choice and that we will help not only the Argentine team, but all our international players.”
It is noteworthy that Messi moved to Paris Saint-Germain this summer from Barcelona on a free transfer deal after the expiration of his contract with the Spanish club.
