Joao Neves to miss Nice trip after half-time exit against Chelsea | OneFootball

PSG will be without Joao Neves for Saturday's trip to Nice at 21:05. According to L'Équipe, the midfielder has been ruled out.

He felt discomfort during Wednesday's Champions League round-of-16 second leg against Chelsea, a 3-0 win, and was substituted at half-time.

Neves did not take part in Friday morning's training. Luis Enrique noted that when a player is absent from training, he is unlikely to be involved the following day.

His name did not appear in the club's medical bulletin issued on the eve of the game, unlike Bradley Barcola, Fabian Ruiz and Quentin Ndjantou. Achraf Hakimi is suspended and will miss the match as well.

Even so, the former Benfica player has been called up by Portugal for two fixtures in the United States, against Mexico on 29 March in Mexico City and the USA on 1 April in Atlanta.
