GAME LOG

Available versus Inter Messias (thigh) will be an option Friday against Inter, coach Alberto Gilardino informed.
Impact Messias will return quickly after sitting out the previous match due to a minor thigh issue. The gaffer has the entire roster at his disposal, so he might decide to ease him off the bench, unlike the last time he returned from injury. He posted eight off-target shots, seven chances created, and nine crosses (three accurate) in his last four appearances.
DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers new injury Messias picked up a mild muscular distraction in the Juventus game, Gianluca Di Marzio reported.
Impact Messias is back on the mend for the third time in the season, although the issue is supposedly less severe than his previous ones. He'll miss the upcoming Sassuolo tilt and will try to return against either Inter or Bologna in the ensuing rounds. Caleb Ekuban or Morten Thorsby will enter XI unless Mateo Retegui (thigh) returns.
DECEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Draws three fouls in Juventus game Messias won seven duels, had one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate), and drew three fouls in Friday's 1-1 draw versus Juventus.
Impact Messias started the game as center-forward and finished in as a left wing-back and, while he was pretty lively, he didn't fill it up. He'll get consistent minutes if he stays healthy, but his output will vary depending on his role. He has logged eight shots (zero on target), seven key passes, and nine crosses (three accurate) in the last four rounds. Genoa will face Sassuolo away Friday.
DECEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Lively in Empoli contest Messias registered three shots (zero on goal), three crosses (two accurate), four chances created, and one corner in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Empoli.
Impact Messias drew his first start of the season and, not coincidentally, had his best showing so far, as he put up numbers across the board on offense and led his team in key passes. He should have a big role while Albert Gudmundsson is out. He posted one goal, five shots (one on target), six chances created, and four crosses (two accurate) in four appearances.
DECEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Subs in late versus Frosinone Messias (thigh) created one scoring chance and had three passes in ten minutes in Sunday's 1-2 loss to Frosinone.
Impact Messias was eased into action after his second thigh problem of the season and didn't do much. He should see more minutes against Empoli, especially in light of some major offensive absences. He has recorded one goal, two shots (one on target), and two chances created in three appearances off the bench.
NOVEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will be back in Frosinone match Messias (thigh) has worked regularly with the group throughout the break and will be an option versus Frosinone on Sunday, Il Secolo XIX reported.
Impact Messias has overcome his second thigh injury of the season and will likely be introduced slowly given the circumstances, but Genoa are running low on attackers since Albert Gudmundsson (calf) and Mateo Retegui (knee) are banged up as well, so he's primed to get minutes regardless. He has played just twice off the bench so far, scoring once and tallying two shots (one on target), one key pass, and one inaccurate cross.
NOVEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Not returning against Verona Messias (thigh) won't be available versus Verona on Friday, coach Alberto Gilardino announced.
Impact Messias will sit his fifth game in a row due to his second thigh problem of the season and should recuperate during the break. He has appeared just twice off the bench so far, so their rotations don't change much with him shelved again.
NOVEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will sit out a few games Messias (thigh) "will need some time to return due to his previous thigh injury," coach Alberto Gilardino informed.
Impact Messias picked up another strain right before the last game and hasn't been able to recover during the break. He'll likely skip further matches considering the gaffer remarks. He hasn't featured much so far given his precarious health.
OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Likely to miss time after the break Messias has been diagnosed with a quad strain, but it's not a relapse of his previous injury, Il Secolo XIX reports.
Impact Messias got hurt before the last game and previously spent two months on the mend with a different thigh problem. He's expected to sit three-to-four weeks so, even if the rehab goes well, he'll be a late call for the Atalanta match. He has yet to obtain a regular role considering his absences.
OCTOBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Late scratch for Milan game Messias is unavailable for Sunday's clash with Milan due to a muscular injury, Sky Italy reported.
Impact Messias was part of the initial squad list despite picking up an ailment in practice but will watch the game from the stands and take some tests after the match. Ruslan Malinoskyi and Albert Gudmundsson are teaming up in a light attack since Mateo Retegui is hurt too.
OCTOBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in first appearance Messias scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Thursday's 4-1 victory versus Roma.
Impact Messias made his Genoa debut Thursday after missing the first five matches of the season with a thigh injury. He came on in the 76th minute and made an immediate impact, scoring his first Genoa goal in the 81st minute off a Morten Frendrup cross. Now that he is back healthy, it will be interesting to see where he falls in the pecking order in the attack.
SEPTEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Avaialble versus Roma Messias (thigh) wasn't listed among the absentees for Thursday's match versus Roma by coach Alberto Gilardino.
Impact Messias stated in an interview that he'll be on the bench Thursday, and the gaffer didn't disprove that. He'll be eased into action after about six weeks on the mend and the transfer. Genoa have fielded increasingly defensive-minded lineups in recent fixtures. He'll have to compete for minutes with Ruslan Malinovskyi, Stefano Sabelli, and Morten Frendrup.
SEPTEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Out again Messias (thigh) "won't travel to Lecce but will be back with the group Saturday," coach Alberto Gilardino announced.
Impact Messias will sit the fifth game in a row but is on the verge of coming back. It remains to be seen whether he'll be in good enough shape to feature in the upcoming midweek round already, though.
SEPTEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Not ready yet Messias (thigh) won't be available against Napoli Saturday, as his coach Alberto Gilardino stated: "We hope he'll be able to rejoin the group in the days right after the game."
Impact Messias is struggling to recuperate from a thigh problem and will be given at least another week. Genoa will continue learning on the same midfielders, primarily Kevin Strootman, Milan Badelj, Morten Frendrup, and Ruslan Malinovskyi, although newcomers Morten Thorsby and Berkan Kutlu could begin to see more minutes.
SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Sidelined for a while longer Messias (thigh) "will hopefully return after the break," coach Alberto Gilardino relayed.
Impact Messias has been out for a few weeks due to a strain and might need time to get back into shape after being cleared. Morten Frendrup got the start in the past game, but Kevin Strootman is back from suspension and they just added Ruslan Malinovskyi.
AUGUST 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will miss opener Messias "is recovering from a small injury, and we'll have him later on," coach Alberto Gilardino announced.
Impact Messias wasn't playing in the friendlies with Milan prior to the move and is poised to skip at least the opener while nursing a muscular problem. Genoa will lean on Mattia Aramu, Morten Frendrup, and Kevin Strootman until he's healthy.
AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joins Genoa Messias has transferred to Genoa on loan with a conditioned obligation to buy from Milan, the clubs informed.
Impact Messias would have been squeezed out of the rotation had he stayed since Milan signed Christian Pulisic and Samuel Chukwueze. He'll likely feature a few meters back on the pitch at Genoa as he used to do at Crotone but should remain heavily involved in the final third and should quickly become a regular starter. He logged six goals, two assists, 38 shots (13 on target), and 34 crosses (five accurate) in 34 appearances (21 starts) in 2022/2023.
AUGUST 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Takes two shots in season finale Messias had two tackles (one won), one inaccurate cross, two shots (zero on target), and drew two fouls in Round 38's 3-1 win over Verona.
Impact Messias started over Alexis Saelemaekers in the last four matches of the campaign but didn't really stand out. He replicated the same numbers as 2021/2022, logging five goals, two assists, 38 shots (13 on target), and 20 chances created in 36 appearances (21 starts).
JUNE 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Fairly active versus Juventus Messias won two duels and generated two shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate), and one chance created in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Juventus.
Impact Messias had an okay showing but was pulled relatively early to make way for Alexis Saelemaekers. He has scored once and posted eight shots (three on target), six chances crated, 12 crosses (four accurate), and three tackles (one won) in his last six appearances.
MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Logs three crosses versus Inter Messias (thigh) drew one foul, sent in three crosses (one accurate), and had one clearance in 76 minutes in Tuesday's 0-1 loss to Inter.
Impact Messias got the start despite an ailment but didn't have a particularly good showing. Since Ismael Bennacer is out for the remaining fixtures, he'll split time with Alexis Saelemaekers and Charles De Ketelaere. He tallied one goal, five shots (two on target), five chances crated, and seven crosses (three accurate) in his last four appearances.
MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Will play Tuesday Messias (thigh) will be in the starting XI for Tuesday's tilt with Inter Milan.
Impact Messias will make his first Champions League start for the club since March 8 versus Tottenham in which he was forced off in the 56th minute due to injury. The attacking midfielder has just one goal in his last eight appearances (four starts) in which he recorded nine shots (two on target), nine crosses (two accurate) and two corners.
MAY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Probable for Inter clash Messias (thigh) "has been able to train almost without limitations," coach Stefano Pioli relayed.
Impact Messias skipped the previous tilt with a minor muscular injury. He'll be further evaluated before the match and will likely begin on the bench if cleared, as he has done in most of the recent bouts. He has scored once and tallied six shots (two on target), eight chances created, six crosses (two accurate), and four tackles (two won) in his last six appearances (two starts).
MAY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for Spezia game Messias hasn't been called up for Saturday's match versus Spezia due to muscle fatigue in his adductor, Sky Italy reports.
Impact Messias will be spared out of precaution as he might get the nod midweek against Inter. Brahim Diaz or Alexis Saelemaekers will play on the right wing Saturday, but they could also star together given their versatility.
MAY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Provides jolt versus Inter Messias registered two shots (one on goal), three crosses (two accurate), and four chances created in 72 minutes in Wednesday's 0-2 loss against Inter.
Impact Messias came in early to replace the injured Ismael Bennacer and was often the lone source of offense for Milan, although he wasted a good opportunity to score in the second half by finishing too weakly and centrally from inside the box after shaking a defender. He has hit the net once and tallied six shots (two on target), six chances created, five crosses (two accurate), and four tackles (two won) in his last five appearances.
MAY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores against Cremoense Messias won six duels and scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target) and one chance created in 15 minutes in Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Cremonese.
Impact Messias didn't play a lot but had a strong performance and leveled the game with a close-range strike with the help of a pair of deflections. He has started just one in the past five matches, recording three shots (one on target), four key passes, and two inaccurate crosses. He hadn't scored since late February. He has to split time with Brahim Diaz and Alexis Saeleamaekers.
