Lionel Messi was not the only one who suffered during his stay in the parisian team.

Several years ago, PSG became famous worldwide due to the arrival of several superstars with the intention of boosting the club in search of the long-awaited UEFA Champions League that it was about to achieve in 2020 and that was It slipped him away against Bayern Munich.

Although Lionel Messi has been the most brilliant arrival, there were several world stars who arrived over the course of a decade. But it was Zlatan Ibrahimovic who marked a milestone in the history of the french club. Today, more than a decade after his arrival, he recalled details of that event that generated a great stir in the world of football: “In Paris it was a complicated adventure. I honestly didn't want to leave Milan, there I had found happiness again. Before going on vacation I told Galliani that I wanted to meet him and asked him to promise me that he would not sell me out”.

'Ibra' also noted that "I tried to imagine myself wearing his shirt and I immediately called Leonardo to told him that I couldn't play in fields where there were two thousand people. I was used to 80,000 people". "Then, little by little, I was convinced but on my own terms. In the contract I asked for some absurd clauses and conditions, inside I said that they would never accept. After two hours everything was done," he confessed.

What had Messi said about his time in Paris?

Leo has confessed on several occasions how bad his experience at PSG left him. “The truth is that the first year was very difficult for different reasons. The second year, the first six months, I felt very good, very comfortable in the club, in the city, with my family. In the middle was the World Cup and I think it marked a little to all the teams in general, it marked the season a little, with such an important competition in the middle for the first time. I think it conditioned the season a lot. I expected to end differently, but well, it was two years, which, in general they were difficult for me, but they are behind me”, mentioned months ago in an interview with Mundo Deportivo and Sport.
