After beating Metz (3-1) on Saturday as part of the 34th day of Ligue 1, the Parisians will be able to launch the preparation for the semi-final first leg of the Champions League which will be played on Wednesday (9 p.m.) at the Parc des Princes , against Manchester City.

Mauricio Pochettino made an appointment with his players on Monday morning, for the resumption of training.

This Sunday, the whole group, with the exception of the injured players, was able to take advantage of a day of rest to recharge the batteries.

It must be said that PSG has just chained a week to three games that it negotiated well by signing three victories (Saint-Etienne, Angers, Metz).

Care for Mbappé but no worries

Hit in the right thigh on Saturday at the end of the match, during a clash with Metz midfielder Habib Maïga, Kylian Mbappé was at the Loges camp in the morning to pass into the hands of the medical staff.

He provided treatment to optimize his recovery three days from the shock against Manchester City.

There is no real concern for the striker, who will be able to hold his place in the Champions League.

The French international was already "calm and quiet", according to his coach Mauricio Pochettino, just after his exit at the Saint-Symphorien stadium.

Saturday evening, he returned to the bus without a crutch or accessory before returning to the capital with the rest of the group.

In addition, as he had announced at a press conference, Pochettino went to the Georges-Lefèvre stadium (Saint-Germain en Laye) this Sunday.

He attends the women's Champions League semi-final first leg against Barcelona.

Sporting director Leonardo and his deputy Angelo Castellazzi are at his side in the stands.

Defender Presnel Kimpembe also came to encourage Grace Geyoro and her partners.

The probable line-up of PSG on Wednesday

Navas - Florenzi, Danilo Pereira (or Marquinhos), Kimpembe, Bakker (or A. Diallo) - Gueye, Paredes - Di Maria, Verratti, Neymar - Mbappé
