After deciding to extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, Lionel Messi will play in Ligue 1 for at least another season. Due to the fact that the 35-year-old forward’s contract with PSG was set to expire at the end of the current campaign, his future has recently been clouded by uncertainty.
After deciding to extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, Lionel Messi will play in Ligue 1 for at least another season. Due to the fact that the 35-year-old forward’s contract with PSG was slated to expire at the end of the current campaign, his future has recently been clouded by uncertainty.
In defiance of Barcelona’s desire, Messi has reportedly agreed to a new one-year contract in principle to stay with the Ligue 1 champions.
When Messi’s current contract with PSG expires in the summer, the Catalan giants have expressed interest in bringing him back to Camp Nou as a free agent. The 2022 World Cup winner has eight goals and ten assists in 14 Ligue 1 matches this season, and Messi is having a fantastic second season with PSG.
Two Saudi Arabian league sides are reportedly willing to offer Lionel Messi sums that would exceed those received by Cristiano Ronaldo at Al Nassir.
Al-Hilal and Al Itihad are the teams, according to Marca, that have requested assistance from the Saudi Arabian government in order to be able to make the offer.
The approximate €350 million per season that both teams are willing to pay Messi will surpass the €200 million per year that Al Nassr presently pays Ronaldo.
As his current contract is about to expire, Messi, who won the Golden Ball after leading Argentina to its third World Cup, has been linked to a move away from Paris. According to recent reports, Al-Hilal has offered the 35-year-old an unbelievable £245 million to relocate to the Middle East.
