Arrived free during the summer of 2021, Lionel Messi never really managed to integrate into PSG, to the point that his departure now seems to be inevitable. It must be said that according to Daniel Riolo, the Argentinian never wanted to be in Paris where he landed by default when FC Barcelona could no longer pay his salary.
The summer of 2021 will have been particularly hectic for Lionel Messi. Winner of the America Cup with Argentina, the seven-time Ballon d’Or then returned to Barcelona, convinced that he could extend his contract. It was without counting on the catastrophic finances of the club blaugrana. Result, the Barça could not be kept and signed at PSG in stride. Reluctantly as explained Daniel Riolo.
“As of January, we knew at the club that we no longer wanted Messi”
« Campos knows that the one who is the easiest to push out is Messi since he is out of contract. From January, we knew at the club that we no longer wanted Messi, except that we dragged it out, especially with Galtier’s press conferences, that’s communication! Nothing would have been decided before the knockout stages of the Champions League. The madness of extending it could have been taken in the event of qualification “, launches the journalist of RMC at the microphone ofAfter Footbefore continuing.
“He is a player who never wanted to be there”
« He is a player who never wanted to be there, who came because Barça could no longer pay him and the only club that could pay him was PSG. He acclimatized very little to Paris. He is not happy and there are quarrels with the supporters. The story is over and frankly when you support PSG what trace will he have left? Nothing, zero, nothing », added Daniel Riolo.
