The Parisian side will face Bayern Munich in the round of 16 of the Champions League.
PSG managed to bounce back in Ligue 1 and beat Montpellier to maintain their lead in the standings. Lionel Messi shone again and led the Parisians to victory. However, the top Ballon d’Or winner (7) received some bad news shortly before the match against Bayern Munich in the Champions League round of 16.
While the captain of the Argentine national team focuses on what will be the international participation, the Parisian team received a low blow. Kylian Mbappé was injured against Montpellier and it was confirmed that he will be out for the next two matches of the Ligue 1 champion and is in doubt to face the powerful German club.
Donatello’ felt a discomfort in the last matchday of the local tournament, after missing two penalties and missing a goal in front of goal. He was only on the field for 20 minutes and was substituted. With the Champions League just around the corner, the French striker does not know if he will be at 100% to be taken into account by Galtier.
Mbappé’s importance at PSG:
Without ‘Donatello’ against Montpellier, Lionel Messi had to go to extremes to give the three points to the Parisians. For this reason, his recovery is vital to have the attacking trident against Bayern. PSG’s main objective this season is to win the Champions League for the first time.
