The whole of France will stop entering an exorbitant amount of money after Leo's departure.

Lionel Messi's departure from PSG will have a huge impact on the Parisian outfit. The French got rid of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) and Luis Campos will have a difficult task to try not to suffer a loss of the magnitude of Leo. However, the club from the capital not only laments the losses from the football point of view.

Although the man from Rosario had a salary of more than 35 million euros per year, the reality is that this was paid only due to the income that having La Pulga on the squad meant for PSG. On the one hand, Leo contributed 10 sponsors, which translates to 76 million euros, 20% of PSG's annual turnover. Along the same lines, to this is added the sale of season tickets, T-shirts and TV rights.

It should be remembered that when Messi signed for Paris Saint-Germain he broke the record for shirts sold and they had to ask Nike to increase production. On the other hand, in June the television contracts will be renegotiated and it is estimated that the amount will drop significantly taking into account the attraction that Ligue 1 loses after the departure of the captain of the Argentine National Team.

Messi is getting closer to Barcelona

The League gave the go-ahead to the economic feasibility plan and Jorge Messi has already met with Joan Laporta to approach positions. At this time, the desire of all parties is to finalize the return of the Rosario to Spain and everything indicates that an agreement could be reached in the next few hours.
