  • Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe appear to have thrashed out their differences as the pair linked up to a positive effect at training
  • Earlier this week, Mbappe and Messi's closest ally Neymar was reported to have fallen out after Neymar learnt that the former had secretly asked the club to sell him
  • The trio have been involved in some issues that have left lots of football fanatics talking about the 'small matter' of a power struggle at the club

It appears tranquillity has found its place in the camp of Paris Saint-Germain following a series of reports suggesting power struggles between the club's prima donnas - Mbappe, Neymar and Messi.

News from France revealed a rapidly deteriorating relationship between the attacking trident, with reports indicating Neymar and Messi have joined forces to reduce the 'authority' of Mbappe in the dressing room.

But the latest video from a training session ahead of their weekend top liner against Lille, shows calm heads have prevailed at the club.

In the video posted on Twitter, seen by Sports Brief, Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe combined to a devastating effect as the latter latched on to a tailor-measured pass from the Argentine, who had his back facing Mbappe, before coolly planting the ball at the back of the net.

The combination at training is in sharp contrast to what occurred in PSG's last league outing against Montpellier when a frustrated Mbappe walked off from a counterattack after Vitinha failed to pass a ball to him.

Coach Christoph Galtier will hope the combo will occur consistently in their subsequent matches as the season unfolds.

Messi reportedly strikes a deal with Neymar to reduce Mbappe's 'powers' at PSG

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that the only piece of football news emanating from France's top-flight league this week is the power battle at Paris Saint-Germain.

Football coaches at the club have always had to deal with ego issues of the numerous superstars at the club's disposal and recently appointed manager, Christophe Galtier, is no different.

Galtier is faced with the daunting prospect of reigning in and restoring order in the dressing room if recent reports are anything to go by.
