Messi Starts Training With PSG
POLITICS DIGEST – After a rapturous reception and raucous unveiling to the public on Wednesday Lionel Messi took part in his first session at Paris Saint-Germain’s Camp des Loges training facility on Thursday.
The 34-year-old former Barcelona player has been on downtime since winning the Copa America with Argentina in July and started his first PSG run-out with simple physical exercises.

“I’ve been out of action for a month and I need to get physically ready. I hope to be ready as soon as possible because I can’t wait to play,” Messi said at his unveiling at the Parc des Princes stadium on Wednesday.
He is unlikely to make his debut for PSG soon, and certainly not this weekend when Mauricio Pochettino’s team play Strasbourg in Ligue 1.
“I can’t tell you when my first game will be but I can tell you Im dying to get started,” he said. “I want it to be soon.”
Messi only arrived in the French capital on Tuesday before penning a two-year contract with the option of a third season.
