PSG timidly tried to get Lionel Messi to renew with them.

Lionel Messi was the cover of all the media in Europe in recent weeks due to the scandal that ended up happening with Paris Saint Germain after his trip to Saudi Arabia, where he was sanctioned for apparently two weeks without pay, nor being able to concentrate with the staff and even less to be taken into account by Christophe Galtier. But the truth is that this did not happen in a normal context, but rather that PSG is experiencing a serious institutional crisis where the fans are against the managers for paying big salaries and having big businesses but not giving priority to the French team and its roots, with several protest posters in the surroundings of the Parc des Princes by the Ultras.

Players like Marco Verratti have shown their strong disagreement with the sanction of Lionel Messi, according to Lequipe, making it clear that what was happening with the Argentine ten did not seem fair to them because he had not disrespected the institution at any time. since it was something that was already planned and could be taken as something urgent by Leo. But the truth is that yesterday Lionel Messi returned to training today with PSG, as reported by El Chiringuito, having finally been suspended for a week that the Parisian club imposed on him and not two, considering the apology from the ten Argentine and who did not seek at any time to confront the board.

But the truth is that while much is said about the future of the Argentine ten, Paris Saint Germain took a measure that could change everything regarding Leo's future, taking into account that his contract ends at the end of June this year. Lionel Messi would have received a new offer from Paris Saint Germain to renew, the Parisians not throwing in the towel but sending him a real insult to sign a contract and stay at the French club.

PSG and the offer to Messi

PSG would have offered him a 1-year contract with a salary reduction, due to Financial Fair Play, showing that it is not a priority for them that Lionel Messi stays but that they would like to renew him, as revealed by El Chiringuito. It would be much less than the 40 million euros that he is currently receiving, since the need to reduce costs for Paris Saint Germain is high.
