The goal scorer for Mauricio Pochettino's team left the game after a fall on his shoulder, and was wincing as he headed to the locker room.

"It does not look good," the Argentine DT had warned at the press conference.
And his concern was confirmed: the former Inter suffered an acromioclavicular sprain
and will be out for three weeks
, according to
L'Equipe
.
The absence of Icardi makes Messi's debut with his new team more feasible on the fourth round of Ligue 1, when PSG visit Reims.
The duel is scheduled for Sunday 29 and will go down in French football history as Leo's first time in that competition.
Scaloni suffers
Icardi's good moment at PSG, with 2 goals in 3 games, added to the possibility of joining him with his teammates Messi, Di María and Paredes, made possible the possibility of seeing Mauro again with the Argentine National Team shirt.

In recent days, the possibility that Lionel Scaloni would include him in the call for the exhausting and transcendental triple date that comes to the champion of America was considered, with matches on September 2, 5 and 9, with Venezuela, Brazil and Bolivia, respectively.
The injuries of Lucas Alario and Sergio Agüero, added to the possible loss of Lautaro Martínez due to an annoyance, also made logical the presence of Icardi again with the albiceleste shirt.
That occasion will have to wait.
