It’s always taken. After their victory in additional time once morest Rennes (1-0) on Friday evening and the revolt of their ultras in the first period, PSG avoided new annoyances this Saturday morning. No new injuries are to be deplored in the Parisian ranks, and the staff of Mauricio Pochettino is advancing towards the shock once morest Real Madrid with at least this assurance: Mbappé, Messi and others will be present Tuesday evening at the Parc des Princes, barring a last-minute injury in the next two days.
The other good news might come from Neymar, on the flank since November 28 and his sprained ankle once morest Saint-Etienne (3-1). This Saturday, the Parisian number 10 carried out the entire session with the group, he who until now alternated between collective training and individual work. This does not mean that the former Barcelonan will necessarily be in the group called up to face Madrid. The last two training sessions will give us more information, but there is now a small chance that the Brazilian will make a reappearance at the Parc des Princes, no longer in the stands but on the bench.
No risk with Ramos
This is less true for Sergio Ramos, much more behind than his partner on his recovery program. The Spaniard is continuing his rehabilitation work following his calf injury, and it seems increasingly unlikely that he might be part of the PSG group. Unless the Parisian staff takes huge risks, which is not the current trend. The position of central defender is largely filled with Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Kehrer and the return of Addou Diallo.
Finally the presence of Ander Herrera, victim of an injury to the left thigh, is also hypothetical. The Spanish midfielder has been back in action for two days and, as indicated by the club before the reception from Rennes, he must return to collective training this Sunday. It’s hard to imagine that he might be ready to start this Tuesday even if, like Neymar, he still has a small chance of getting on the bus for the Parc des Princes.
But, once more, the staff has no reason to rush his return knowing that the former Mancunian evolves in a game sector where Pochettino does not lack solutions. Marquinhos’ partners will meet this Sunday morning for their penultimate training session before the Champions League round of 16 first leg once morest Real Madrid at home.
