Lionel Messi will leave Paris Saint- Germain this summer as the player has decided not to continue his contract with the Ligue-1 club. PSG manager, Christophe Galtier has confirmed that the player will not renew his contract and will leave the club this month. Before PSG’s final match of the season against Clermont Foot on Saturday, Galtier has already made it clear that the 7-time Ballon d’Or winner’s future lies outside of the Parc des Princes.
The coach stated that:
“I had the privilege of coaching the best player in the history of football,” Galtier said on Thursday. “This will be his last match at the Parc des Princes, and I hope that he will receive the warmest of welcomes.”
The Argentine star joined the club in 2021 from FC Barcelona on a free transfer and since then he could not connect the same way with the fans the way he did in Spain. Lionel Messi has scored 21 goals and 20 assists this season and has won the World Cup and Ligue 1 becoming one of the most decorated footballers of all time.
