‘This team doesn’t seem to be able to compete at the top of Europe’, Messi finally leaves PSG
Did Paris Saint-Germain expect this to happen two years ago? They brought Lionel Messi (36), shouting ‘Europe’s best’, but ended up breaking up. Messi decided that Paris Saint-Germain would not be able to compete at the top of Europe.
European transfer market expert ‘Fabrigio Romano’ said on the 4th (Korean time), “Messi will leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the 2022-23 season. That’s it. That was the final breaking point.”
British public broadcaster ‘BBC’ also said, “Messi will leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of this season. We agreed in principle to activate a one-year extension option after the World Cup, but now the player and the club do not want it. Messi is Paris Saint-Germain. “I’m not sure if I can compete at the top of Europe because of these financial problems. Paris Saint-Germain also wants to reorganize around young players.”
Messi joined Paris Saint-Germain from Barcelona in 2021. He chose to renew his contract with Barcelona, but financial problems put him under the Primera Liga salary cap and he was unable to sign the contract. After a tearful press conference, he challenged Ligue 1 of France as a free agent.
The contract with Paris Saint-Germain was 2+1 years. At the end of this season, his basic contract expires, and an option for a one-year extension could be triggered depending on Messi’s decision. Paris Saint-Germain always wanted to accompany Messi, but Messi was cold. He eventually decided not to trigger an extension option through his father, Jorge Messi.
Recently, the flight to Saudi Arabia was the end of the ‘breakup’. After the match against Lorient, there was going to be a two-day break. Messi was going to work as a public relations ambassador for Saudi Arabia during his break. It was also agreed with the Paris Saint-Germain club. However, things changed when the team lost to Lorient. Paris Saint-Germain have withdrawn their vacation. Messi, who had prepared the schedule for Saudi Arabia, could not change the schedule and it was complicated.
France’s leading magazine ‘L’Equipe’ said, “Messi has been banned from participating in all training and matches for two weeks. During the period of suspension, no salary is paid. I threw a message that I couldn’t be at the top. Two years ago, I wore a Paris Saint-Germain uniform with great joy, but the ending turned into a sad story.”토스카지노
