Lionel Messi is set to return to Paris Saint-Germain training on Tuesday after winning the World Cup with Argentina.
The 35-year-old was handed a 10-day break by PSG after his exploits in Qatar but has now reportedly returned to the club ahead of their Coupe de France clash against Chateauroux on Friday. Messi scored twice in the final as Argentina beat Kylian Mbappe's France on penalties at Lusail Stadium following a 3-3 after extra-time.
However, according to L'Equipe, Messi will not be joined by Mbappe in training after most of the PSG squad were granted a day off following their 3-1 defeat against Lens on Sunday. Mbappe scored a hat-trick in the final but didn't manage to finish on the winning side as he looked furious with Messi after the final whistle.
