Released at the very end of the first period against Lille (5-1) after feeling a pain in the calf, Angel Di Maria did not give up the match against Real Madrid next Tuesday at the Parc des Princes.
The reviews carried out by the Argentine striker are rather reassuring.
"El Fideo" is only suffering from muscle fatigue which should not prevent him from putting on his crampons next week.
On the other hand, his presence against Stade Rennais, this Friday, is not assured.
The Parisian staff intends to take all the precautions, and the Argentinian international will start the week of training with treatment this Tuesday at Camp des Loges.
It must be said that Mauricio Pochettino has a fairly narrow margin of maneuver in attack.
Neymar's presence against Madrid is far from certain and even if he were to be present, the Brazilian will suffer from a severe lack of rhythm after more than two months without competition.
The injury of Mauro Icardi, hit in the left foot, is not good news either, even if the Argentinian has been, for several weeks, only the shadow of the scorer that he was.
For all these reasons, the Parisian management will pamper Di Maria so that he can accompany Messi and Mbappé in attack.
Or else it will be necessary to launch Julian Draxler, not really convincing since his return to competition, even if we could note a slight improvement when he came into play at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium against Lille.
