Six-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi is set make his eagerly-awaited debut for Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain when they travel to Reims on Sunday evening.
The 34-year-old joined the Parisian club nearly three weeks ago, but has been given time to settle in the French capital and build up his fitness following his triumph with Argentina at the Copa America.
Messi, along with South American teammate Neymar, have been watching on from the stands so far this campaign, but the attacking duo are in line to make their first appearances on Sunday.
Kylian Mbappe, meanwhile, may have played his final game for PSG as his dream move to Real Madrid edges ever closer.
Mauro Icardi is the latest name ruled out with an injury and has joined Sergio Ramos and Colin Dagba on the treatment table. Idrissa Gueye and Layvin Kurzawa, meanwhile, are both doubtful and will be assessed before kickoff.
Abdou Diallo is expected to continue at left-back as Juan Bernat is still recovering from his long-term knee injury, but the Spaniard is hoping to return to first-team training soon.
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, who was part of the matchday squad for the first time against Brest, will be in contention to start this weekend. However, the Italian is set to remain on the bench behind current number one Keylor Navas.
Angel Di Maria, Danilo Pereira and Julian Draxler were also named as substitutes last weekend, but will be hoping they can force their way into Mauricio Pochettino's starting lineup.
PSG possible starting lineup: Navas; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Diallo; Gueye; Herrera, Verratti; Wijnaldum; Neymar, Messi
