PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain are anxiously waiting for news over the fitness of striker Neymar and midfielder Marco Verratti after both players missed training on Friday ahead of Sunday's Ligue 1 clash against bitter rivals Olympique de Marseille.

Coach Unai Emery said that Brazil international Neymar was "ill" while Italy international Verratti was in the hands of the club's physiotherapists for "abdominal problems".

"He (Verratti) doesn't feel like he's 100 percent (fit)," Emery told a news conference, without saying if Neymar and Verratti were doubtful for the game at the Parc des Princes.
