Paris Saint-Germain have announced this afternoon that Lionel Messi will be absent for tomorrow night’s trip to Metz, with the Argentine having picked up a knock on his left knee.

The forward, who had been taken off by manager Mauricio Pochettino during the second half against Lyon, had taken a hit and has sustained bruising. The club will analyse his situation again in 48 hours, ahead of Saturday’s reception of Montpellier.
