It’s time for a turnaround. Maybe the Parisian club wants him to stay, but Lionel Messi doesn’t and that’s why he will leave the French capital after two years. At the end of the season, the Argentinian’s contract expires and it is clear that he will not extend it, but open a new chapter in his career.Ahead of the match of the 38th round of Ligue 1 with Clermont, Christophe Galtier – head of the professional staff of the French champion – confirmed that Messi will wear the shirt of Paris Saint-Germain for the last time on Saturday evening.”I had the great privilege of coaching the best football player in history. On Saturday, he will play the last game for us and I hope that the fans will greet him warmly”, wishes Galtier, although the question is what will be heard from the stands, which have showered Messi with whistles boos several times in these two years.##NAJAVA_MECA_7292864##Primarily because of the failure in the Champions League. Galtier can say what he wants, Messi did not live up to expectations at Parc des Princes. PSG brought him with the intention of raising the club to the status of European champion, and for two years in a row, they ended the participation in the elimination phase already, after double-matches against Real Madrid and Bayern. So far, he has scored 32 goals in 74 games, even that is debatable if one knows how high he has set the standard.”They often criticized Leo, but his season was great. He needed time to adjust in his first year, and in his second year, he was exceptional. Criticisms against him are not justified at all. It is impressive that at the age of 35 he led the Argentine national team to the World Cup title. He was always at the service of the team”, believes Galtier.PSG coach Christophe Galtier confirms Saturday’s match against Clermont will be Leo Messi’s final game for the club:“I had a privilege of coaching the best player in the history of football.” 🐐 pic.twitter.com/EsM9f8nJt5— B/R Football (@brfootball) June 1, 2023 Messi’s era in Paris is over, but it is not yet known where the new one will begin. A romantic return to Barcelona does not seem realistic, mostly due to the economic problems that the Catalans are facing, the option is to move to Inter Miami in the MLS league, and in recent weeks there have been more and more rumors that the Saudis could persuade him to sign for one of the clubs there.
