Lionel Messi returned to PSG training

“Leo Messi returned to training on Monday morning,” the club said on Twitter, posting a photo of the Argentine in action.

Basically, his suspension lasted six days. He was suspended last Tuesday by the Paris club after a promotional trip to Saudi Arabia without the club’s consent. The press assumed that the suspension would last two weeks.

Messi did not play in the Ligue 1 match won against Troyes (3:1) on Sunday, but he will return for the championship match with Ajaccio from the 35th stage next Saturday at the Parc des Princes, writes Agerpres.

Messi apologized to the club and his Paris Saint-Germain teammate after traveling to Saudi Arabia earlier last week without permission, in a video posted on Instagram on Friday.

“I honestly thought we would have a day off after the game, like we had in previous weeks,” the Argentine explained in a video posted on Instagram on Friday.
