Lionel Messi is clearly the footballer where the vast majority of eyes are on in the world, not only for having won The Best FIFA award, the Qatar 2022 World Cup with the Argentine National Team and being the best footballer on the planet by scandal; but because his contract with Paris Saint Germain -PSG- ends on June 30 and in case of not renewing he would be free to choose the destination he wishes, with this club only having to take charge of the payment of the salary from him.

And in this sense, much is being said about whether Messi will continue in Paris or decide to make a change of course because the Parisian team has not finished weighing internationally and it would not be having a sports project that will excite it hand in hand of Christophe Galtier, added to the fans booing him every game, in a way that is clearly unfair.

But in all this context, Lionel Messi received news that undoubtedly surprised him due to his high level that he is having in the Argentine National Team and being by scandal the best in Paris Saint Germain, where it is through him that all the balls pass, being the creative weapon of the team par excellence and being almost totally dependent on him to be able to develop associated game.

Lionel Messi falls behind Kylian Mbappé in a record that many did not expect, but which ends up being logical because this aspect does not always record the footballing quality of the players but also evaluates their age and what remains of their career.

Messi behind Mbappé

Lionel Messi lost 5 million euros in its market price, going from 50 million euros to 45 million, according to the Transfermarkt portal. For his part, Kylian Mbappé is worth 180 million at the moment. Here the football level does not matter so much, but rather the ages of the players and how much time they have left on their contract.
