CONFIRMED: LIONEL MESSI TO LEAVE PSG IN THE SUMMER
Lionel Messi will part ways with Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season as it is now understood that his father, Jorge, informed PSG of the decision a month ago.
There are “no doubts,” according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, that Messi will leave the Ligue 1 team at the end of the current campaign.
It is understood that his father told PSG that a decision had been made last month ‘due to the project’. This was the final breaking points, Romano states.
This comes after Messi was suspended for two weeks by the club after making an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia.
Messi’s relationship with the Ligue 1 side is believed to have been strained as a result, but Romano has now reported that his decision to leave was made last month.
The World Cup winner signed a £25m-a-year deal with Saudi Arabia last year to become a tourism ambassador.
Messi joined PSG in the summer of 2021 on a two-year deal after leaving Barcelona due to their financial issues.
