Lionel Messi will soon play for the Paris Saint Germain club (PSG) for the very first time, on August 29 in the Ligue 1 against Reims, according to PSG’s coach Mauricio Pochettino.

Messi didn’t play in the match against Brest on Friday, August 20, as both Messi and Neymar were left out for a second straight match, but several international players made a match day squad for the first time this season.

They ended up winning 4 goals to 2, including Marquinhos, Angel Di Maria, duo Gigi Donnarumma and Marco Verratti.

Paris Saint Germain’s coach hopes to see Messi return on the field against Reims.

“It’s been a very good week for Leo in training. Next week will be a long one, but if all goes well, we hope he can already be in the squad and start being part of the one-man squad at a competitive level, “said the coach.

After playing against Reims, on August 29, Messi’s next game will be on September, 12 against Clermont, at the end of the international break.

Messi’s signing was officially announced on August 10 and participated in many training sessions during the same month.
