PSG confirmed Messi's departure, this Saturday he'll play his last game.

Lionel Messi is slowly ending his stage as a PSG footballer. After two seasons in Paris, the captain of the Argentine National Team will play his last game this weekend, against Clermont as a local. The meeting is already anecdotal, given that the whole of the capital of France has already secured Ligue 1 mathematically. However, Christophe Galtier moved everyone with his words for the Flea in the preview of the last league clash of the season.

The Paris Saint-Germain coach, who could also leave the club after this season, gave statements to Media Parisien and expressed about the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7): "I had the privilege of directing the best player in the football history. It will be the last game for Leo (Messi) in the Parc des Princes”. Thus, the French manager once again shows that he is one of the few in the club that really valued the contribution of Rosario at PSG.

Thus, Messi will close his stage with 75 games played and two Ligue 1 titles and a French Super Cup in his record. In addition, in the absence of his last game, he records 32 goals and 34 assists. In fact, if he provides two assists against Clermont he will equal a historic mark that belongs to Ángel Di María.

How did Mbappe react to Messi leaving?

Argentine fans are quite upset with Mbappe on social networks, well, the Frenchman has not said goodbye to Lionel Messi yet, what's more, he hasn't even sent a message or uploaded a photo with the Argentine player. Kylian Mbappe has remained silent for the moment.
