Paris Saint-Germain have welcomed Lionel Messi back to the squad for Tuesday's Champions League encounter with RB Leipzig.
The six-time Ballon d'Or winner was a late arrival back from international duty with Argentina and did not take part in his side's 2-1 Ligue 1 victory over Angers on Friday night.
However, Messi has made an expected return to the Parisiens squad for the visit of Leipzig, although fellow South American Neymar is out with a groin injury.

Sergio Ramos must also wait a little longer to make his PSG debut due to a calf problem, while Leandro Paredes has been ruled out for the next few weeks with a thigh issue.
There is a space in the squad for Keylor Navas despite an initial injury concern, though, while Mauro Icardi has also made the cut, even though the striker missed training over the weekend amid a social media storm surrounding his wife and agent Wanda Nara.
