In France, they no longer talk only about the future of Lionel Messi at PSG, but about the trip to Saudi Arabia with Antonela Roccuzzo and their children. After the displacement of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) to the Middle East, L'Équipe mentioned that there is annoyance among the top managers of the Parisian team and now the final decision is known on whether they will decide to throw out the 'Flea' before the supposed disciplinary offense.

According to the French press, Lionel Messi did not obey a direct order from Christophe Galtier, who would not have given Leo permission to travel to Arabia. However, the environment of Rosario maintained that he informed the club about the situation two months ago and ruled out bad behavior by the captain of the Argentine team.

In this context, L'Équipe itself maintained that the Ligue 1 champion could penalize the '10' of the Albiceleste. However, it would be difficult for them to make the radical decision to separate him, since the club is still fighting to win a new title and his contract ends in June. The possibility of an economic measure against the best player in history is being considered.

The tense situation would accelerate the departure of Lionel Messi at the end of this season:

Faced with a new dirty game to make Leo look bad, Messi would make the final decision to accept FC Barcelona's offer. However, he remains to know if La Liga will give the green light to the feasibility plan presented by the Catalans, so that the organization approves the return of the winner of four Champions League with the blaugrana.
