Lionel Messi has made a decision about his future, and he will finally leave FC Barcelona, and the rumours say he will the offer from Paris Saint-Germain over Manchester City and Inter Miami CF, rejecting his friends Sergio Aguero and David Beckham respectively. And with a move like that, he will have his demands.

Currently, Mauricio Pochettino is going through his first days as PSG manager and he is already thinking of changes in the squad. He is planning to get rid of some players he does not think he would be useful anymore for the team, but that could clash with the ideas that Lionel Messi had in mind.

That is because the player is close friend of Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes, both regulars in Argentina national team and players that Pochettino would not count on according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. Their departures would make Messi arrive to a club in a situation he did not expected, because meeting his friends in trainings every day was in his plans.

Anyway, despite the rumours, the GOAT has never had a voice or decision whether players would be included or excluded, either in FC Barcelona or Argentina national team. But he will be still  disappointed, and his only friend in the squad will be Neymar, influential for the deal to happen.
