MESSI DOUBTFUL FOR SUPERCOPA FINAL…ABSENT FROM TRAINING
Great doubts emerged on Friday on whether Barcelona captain, Lionel Messi will play in Saturday’s Spanish Super Cup.
Barcelona will face Athletic Bilbao in the final match.
Messi did not attend Friday’s training session but will still travel to Seville venue of the match.
It remains to be seen whether the captain is fully fit to play though – the matchday squad will be announced after the final training.
Messi did not play in the semi-final against Real Sociedad on Wednesday due to the minor injury he sustained against Granada last weekend. Messi’s participation in Sunday’s final is not ruled out but his absence from Friday’s training is not a positive sign.
