Lionel Messi appears on the cover of all the newspapers. Each movement that the Argentine produces, the world moves. It is known that his contract with Paris Saint-Germain ends at the end of the season. However, according to the information released by the journalist Verónica Brunati, the Argentine would not renew with the Parisian club.

La Pulga would have tired of the whistles that the ultras of the capital club have thrown at him and would be determined to end their relationship after two seasons. The elimination against Bayern Munich was a trigger for the Parisians to boo the Argentine, who has gone to the dressing room without greeting them for said whistles.

The offer that appeared, according to the renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, is from the Saudi Arabian league. Al-Hilal, the classic rival of the team in which Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr) plays, offered the Argentine a salary of 400 million euros per season, almost double what CR7 earns.

However, the multi-million dollar offer was rejected by Lionel Messi. According to the Argentine journalist Gastón Edul, Leo intends to continue on the European continent because he believes that he has the necessary energy to compete at a high level, after having won the world championship with his country.

The rapprochement with Barcelona is concrete

The Argentine star could return to Barcelona after two seasons away. After his departure in 2021, his name did not appear at the Camp Nou until yesterday. In the Clásico, the Culés chanted his name in the 10th minute in reference to his historic number. Xavi and Rafa Yuste, vice president of the Blaugrana, confirmed to the media that they contacted him. The only thing left to do is wait for Laporta to pick up the phone and make him a proposal to be Culé again.
