Ligue 1: Lionel Messi to miss PSG’s match against Monaco with flu

By Aman Shukla

Lionel Messi has been ruled out of Paris Saint-Germain’s Ligue 1 match away to Monaco on Sunday in the wake of coming down with the flu. The Argentine was booed by his own PSG supporters in the 3-0 win over Nantes last weekend following PSG’s Champions League elimination by Real Madrid.

Angel Di Maria is also sidelined by a hamstring problem, while Sergio Ramos and Ander Herrera are expected to come back after the international break.

Messi was recalled Friday by Argentina for World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Ecuador later this month. He missed the past two qualifiers in January after contracting Covid-19.
