Since Paris Saint-Germain recruited Lionel Messi, a crazy rumor has taken hold of social networks. After the announcement of a historic start for sales of shirts flocked in the name of the Argentinian (the best in ‘the history of the Ile-de-France club), some media claimed that the Rouge-et-Bleu had already sold 832,000 tunics. A figure that the director of diversification of PSG, Fabien Allègre, was keen to deny.
“It’s crazy to come out with figures like this. Yes, the sales trend has been phenomenal (the best swimwear launch ever), but we are a long way from the million swimsuits sold. The deal with Messi was made very quickly, it is not something that we could have anticipated. …) For the moment, we have only unveiled two jerseys, there are still the third and fourth tunics to be launched. Over the past two seasons, it was with all of these four outfits that we had reached the million jerseys sold ”, he said on The team.
