Lionel Messi at the 2022 FIFA World Cup
After winning his first FIFA World Cup title, Lionel Messi has finally decided on his future after months of chaotic media reports and unending rumors. Reportedly, the Argentina captain has decided to stay at Paris Saint-Germain for further more time. There were various rumors that Messi would stop playing European football, and would leave to join clubs like either Inter Miami or Barcelona.
Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano shunned all these rumors after he reported that Lionel Messi has decided to stay in Paris beyond 2023. Many suggested that the 35-year-old forward was close to leaving the Ligue 1 club for David Beckham‘s Inter Miami. Although, he has verbally agreed to play for the PSG for another season as the deal will be signed soon. Nothing is signed as of now. The Argentine is enjoying his FIFA World Cup win at the moment.
“No decision yet on the length of contract and salary, it will be decided in a new meeting,” Fabrizio reported. PSG president Al Khelaifi and the board are trying their best to seal the contract in the coming few weeks. An in-form Lionel Messi is just getting started to take over the French league. Lionel Messi has been convinced to stay for another year, according to Le Parisien.
According to various outlets, Lionel Messi was close to joining MLS club Inter Miami just before the FIFA World Cup began. While some also suggested that he might head back to Barcelona due to his family. None of this turned out to be entirely true as the Argentine has decided to play for PSG as a World Champion. He clearly stated that he wanted to win the Champions League with the French club, and might actually achieve it this season.
Lionel Messi’s possible aim for the remainder of 2022-23 football season
The 2022 FIFA World Cup started in winter. Therefore, players still have half of the decisive season to look forward to for their clubs. Just like every other footballer, Lionel Messi would also be playing for PSG for the rest of the season, and arguably more. After attaining his only untouched title in Qatar, Lionel Messi would be on a hunch for his fifth UEFA Champions League trophy.
The former-Barcelona star confirmed his main target was to win the Champions League title once again with PSG. Although, PSG has never won a single UCL title in the club’s history. Do you think Lionel Messi can bring European glory?
The 35-year-old Argentine does not seem to be slowing down with age. He led his country to the second World Cup final of his career. Lionel Messi was the player of the tournament as he was directly involved in 10 goals for Argentina. Do you think he can find the same form for PSG?
