Leo Messi, who was positive for Covid during the end of the year vacations that he went to spend in Argentina, said that it has taken him “longer” than expected to recover from the disease , although he asserted that he is already training with PSG to get “to the 80 %”.

“It took me longer than I thought to get well, but I’m almost recovered and I’m really looking forward to getting back on the court. I have been training these days to get to 100%, very nice challenges are coming this year and hopefully very soon we can see each other again, “he said on his Instagram account.

The Argentinian star has been in Paris since last week, but his return to group training has been postponed , despite having been presenting negative covid tests for days.

The “30” from PSG was absent last Sunday in the league tie in Lyon

(1-1). His participation on Saturday against Brest is still unknown, as it is unknown if he will be called up.

The absence of Messi aroused alarm among PSG supporters, since he recovered from the coronavirus had only appeared once in training , and the club did not give further details of his state of health.
