The PSG forward Neymar will not travel to Rennes
The forward of PSG, Neymar, whose club is negotiating his departure, is not included in the group that travels to Rennes to play the match of the second round of Ligue 1 on Sunday, his coach Thomas Tuchel announced this Saturday.
"He did not complete the training with the group today. It's a bit too early for him to return to a game, especially against Rennes at their home. It's too early. We wait one more week for him to start with the group," the coach said.

The German coach has not been able to field Neymar since his ankle injury at the end of May. The PSG star, who already missed the league opener against Nimes last Sunday (3-0), alternates collective and individual training sessions.
The sporting director of the French national team, Leonardo, confirmed negotiations for the transfer of the most expensive player in history (€222 million in 2017), who also does not hide his desire to leave the French capital.
"The market will close next month. Today, that changes nothing, he is my player. When I think of a strong team, it's with him. For now, there are no solutions for his departure from the club. Nothing has changed. Our relationship is the same, if there is no solution, he stays. He has three years left on his contract," Tuchel said in a press conference.
