Should be recalled, Lionel Messi didn’t push for a departure from Barcelona this summer. In fact, the Argentine reached an agreement with the Catalan giants to sign a new contract but the club couldn’t make it happen due to their poor financial situation.
It is highly possible that the playmaker will return to retire at the club after his spell at Paris Saint-Germain. He will certainly be welcomed with open arms, considering his exploits in the Barcelona jersey over the years and the love the fans have for him.
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi made his debut appearance for the Parisians during the 2-0 victory over Reims on Sunday evening, coming on as a substitute for Neymar in the 64th minute of the encounter.
Lionel Messi to lead PSG’s charge for Champions League success
It is an open secret that Paris Saint-Germain have signed Lionel Messi to give them an edge as they chase down Champions League glory this season. Despite their dominance at the domestic level, the French giants are still searching for their maiden European crown and they hope the Argentine will help them in their quest.
With Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe up front, PSG already have the scariest attacking line on the continent. The likes of Gianluigi Donnaruma, Sergio Ramos and Achraf Hakimi will also boost their chances. It remains to be seen if they will finally become European champions at the end of the season.
