Lionel Messi's PSG drew 1-1 with Racing Strasbourg as a visitor and got the point that mathematically ensured the Ligue 1 title with a day in advance. The only goal for the Parisians was converted by the captain of the Argentine National Team and now only one function of his would remain with the jersey of the team from the capital of France.

In the absence of official confirmations, Nasser Al-Khelaifi never submitted a renewal offer to Leo and the Rosario's decision would be to continue his career at FC Barcelona. However, reviewing the statements of the PSG owner, it becomes clear that the idea at first was to extend the link of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or.

Prior to the Qatar 2022 World Cup, Al-Khelaifi had declared to Sky Sports: "What we agreed together is that after the World Cup we will sit down to talk. But both parties, our side of the club and him, are very happy, so that we will talk after the World Cup". However, after the consecration of the Albiceleste, the news about his permanence in the club disappeared.

What did Al-Khelaifi say about keeping Messi at PSG?

Paris Saint-Germain was the only club that did not pay a worthy tribute to a world champion, with the aggravating circumstance that he was the best player in the tournament. This, added to the insults of the ultras and the sanction of the club to Messi, ended up leaving aside the possibility of a renewal. Now, whenever the club owner has to talk about plans for next season, he says absolutely nothing about Lionel.
