It didn't take long to see PSG's stars in action. While the debut of their new big names are on the horizon, the club already shared some delightful clips of Monday's training session. Messi's performances in particular were from another planet.
While still only wearing their training kits, the truth is that the first clips released of the Paris Saint-Germain featuring Messi and co are already a favourite amongst football fans around the world.
You don't even need to be a PSG fan to enjoy the scenes of rondos and goals of the Argentine star alongside the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar. And, while we wait for the debut of all of their stars, we will have to settle for the images of training released by the club on social media.
The most recent video published by the French side featured this Monday's session, and it was a joy to behold. Despite barely lasting a minute, Messi can be seen in action in his classic role of goalscorer and assist provider.
In the first seconds of the video, the Argentine captain takes the control of the play, leaving Marco Verratti and compatriot Angel Di Maria rooted in the build up to a goal which is eventually finished by Neymar.
After their Ligue 1 opener ended in a 1-2 victory against Troyes, Pochettino's men treated their fans to a 4-2 thrashing of Strasbourg at the Parc des Princes, a result which came after Messi and the rest of the new signings were presented to the crowd.
