Lionel Messi To Undergo Scan On Left Knee 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Sep 21, 2021 8:19 pm

Lionel Messi will undergo scans for a left knee injury. 

Messi has already been ruled out of Paris Saint-Germain\'s Ligue 1 match against Metz and is also in doubt for next Tuesday\'s Champions League tie against Manchester City.

When asked about Messi\'s situation at a news conference, PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino replied: \"The club has already communicated Leo\'s situation and it\'s clear.

\"We had seen that Messi was touching his knee. I\'m very happy with what he did during the match [against Lyon]. After 75 minutes, taking into account the information we had, we made the decision [to bring him off].

\"Messi is a great champion, and like all great champions, he didn\'t want to come off. I\'m happy with his commitment and his performance. He hasn\'t scored yet, but he played very well.\"
