For its first match of the new year at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain must host Stade Brestois 29 on Saturday evening (9 p.m.), as part of the 21st day of Ligue 1. But for this meeting, the Argentinian coach Mauricio Pochettino will have to do without several players. Absent for several days after having contracted Covid-19, Lionel Messi will still have to ignore it.
“No, Lionel Messi is not available. Neither did Neymar. Alexandre Letellier, Denis Franchi … There are a few unavailable, plus the players at CAN ”, said the former Spurs manager at a press conference on Friday. As a reminder, the Brazilian and the French goalkeeper are still recovering, while the young Italian goalkeeper has tested positive for the coronavirus.
