As usual, it’s not quiet in Paris Saint-Germain. After a week that included elimination from the cup against Marseille and a league loss to Monaco, while showing a particularly weak ability, it is quite possible that the French club is on the way to a revolution. According to reports in the local media, the management is preparing to part with two of the biggest stars in the squad, Neymar and Leo Messi.
According to the journalist Santi Aona, in the case of the Brazilian, the management of the team is simply tired of the most expensive player in the history of world football. Nassar Al Khalaifi, according to the report, is disappointed with the Brazilian who, despite “getting everything from the club”, repeats the same problems every season. But while in the case of Neymar it is PSG’s desire to part ways, it seems that in the case of Leo Messi, the doubts come from the player.
The new world champion came back to himself after a successful debut season, and it’s no secret that the club wants to sign him for two more years. According to Aona, it is precisely Messi who currently does not put the extension of the contract at the top of his priorities, even though the parties were already close to an agreement. He currently continues to think about leaving, and at least according to the report, this is the preferred option in his eyes.
Tomorrow, and in the shadow of all the problems and reports, Paris will meet Bayern Munich in the first meeting of the round of 16 of the Champions League, in a replay of the 2020 final. It is already clear that the success or (further) failure of the French in the prestigious enterprise will have a heavy weight in the decisions for next season.
