Inter Miami predicted XI v PSG: Lionel Messi to start against former club | OneFootball

Inter Miami face Paris Saint-Germain, looking to progress to the quarter finals of the FIFA Club World Cup.

For the encounter, they will have all of their big stars available, and all are expected to start. Lionel Messi, who left PSG on a free transfer in acrimonious circumstances back in 2023, is expected to captain the side alongside another former Barcelona forward, Luis Suarez, up front.

There will be a place in midfield for Sergi Busquets, whilst Jordi Alba is expected to play on the left-hand side of the 4-4-2, expected to be deployed by manager Inter Miami Javier Mascherano. However, all of Messi, Busquets, and Suarez will be suspended should they receive a yellow card and progress at PSG’s expense.
