The “flea” is about to jump again!
Very bitter moments for “La Pulga” (Floh) Lionel Messi (34): The Argentine wins 3-0 with Paris Saint-Germain against Girondins Bordeaux – but Messi is mercilessly whistled at by PSG supporters every time he touches the ball. The six-time world footballer has never experienced anything like this in his incredible career.
PSG trainer Mauricio Pochettino (50) found hardly any words afterwards, saying he was sad “to have to experience such an afternoon in the Prinzenpark”. Dealing with Messi and Neymar “affects us all,” said the coach.
Will the liaison between Messi and PSG end this summer despite the contract until 2023? The seven-time world footballer is considering leaving the French club. His goal: a return to FC Barcelona!
The Spanish journalist Gerard Romero revealed the Argentine’s plans on Sunday on “Twitch”. According to Romero, Messi’s father and agent Jorge have already called Barça bosses about it: “He has called more than once.”
This is confirmed by another journalist. TV reporter Quim Domènech says: “Messi would like to come back.”
Messi wants Barca back – but do the Catalans even want their former superstar? In Barcelona, coach Xavi (42) is building a team around young and talented players. Does Messi actually fit in there?
