Paris Saint-Germain manager Christophe Galtier has responded to claims that certain players have asked to be rested before the FIFA World Cup.
The World Cup gets underway in eight days in Qatar and with Lionel Messi missing last week's win over Lorient, there were suggestions he asked to be rested.

However, Messi and France international Prensel Kimpembe returned to training on Friday ahead of Sunday's Ligue 1 encounter against Auxerre.
Galtier revealed all the players are available for selection and insists no one has asked to be left out of the final game before the World Cup.
"All the players are available except Fabian Ruiz," Galtier told reporters, as per Beinsports.
"No player came to tell me that he did not want to play or that he was afraid of making this last match.
"My door is always open. They know they can come and talk all the time. I wouldn't be surprised if a player came to see me and told me that he was apprehensive about the last game.
"I have an obligation to put up a very competitive team against Auxerre. If there is strong restraint, I will be attentive to the comments of my players."
