Paris SG announced the withdrawal of Brazilian star Neymar, who is recovering from an ankle injury, for Saturday’s Ligue 1 game against Brest, four days before the Super Cup against Marseille.
Neymar, with left ankle problems since the game against Lyon on December 13 (1-0 loss), is continuing his rehabilitation. “He began to run continuously,” said PSG.
Icardi, in addition to Layvin Kurzawa and Alessandro Florenzi, all three resumed training with the group and are ready to play.
The Argentine forward, with knee and adductor problems since the beginning of the season, has only played five minutes in the last three months.
They are also casualties against Brest Presnel Kimpembe and Danilo Pereira (hamstrings), Leandro Paredes (hip), and Rafinha (covid-19), as well as Spanish defender Juan Bernat (knee). AFP (HN)
