Kylian finds himself in a delicate situation for not following in Leo's footsteps.
Kylian finds himself in a delicate situation for not following in Leo's footsteps.

Years go by and the debate about who is the best player in the world continues to be led by Lionel Messi indisputably. The only one who could fight him hand in hand was Cristiano Ronaldo, but since he left Real Madrid he stopped entering the discussion and paved the way for a Leo who is looking for his eighth Ballon d'Or and who has just become champion of the World Cup as the top figure.

Now, despite the fact that he is already 36 years old, he continues to be well above some emerging figures such as Erling Haaland, Vinicius or Kylian Mbappé. Precisely with the latter he shared the last two seasons at PSG, but now La Pulga gave him a new lesson in greatness with the choice of his next future.

At the time, Mbappé flirted with Real Madrid and ended up renewing with Paris Saint-Germain for the money. He now did not want to extend his relationship with the club until 2025 and the board put him up for sale despite Donatello's desire to stay to finish his contract. Messi, on the contrary, rejected the 600 million euros from Al Hilal and prioritized his happiness before money, something that Bondy's did not do at the time and now he regrets.

How much will Messi earn at Inter Miami?

Although the man from Rosario put aside a stratospheric proposal from Saudi Arabia, the truth is that he will earn more than at PSG. While in France he received an annual salary of 35 million euros, now Lionel will earn 50 million dollars in the United States, an amount to which must be added all the extra income he will have from Adidas royalties and subscriptions to the Apple platform that broadcasts the MLS.
