However, an extension is possible.
The French soccer champions Paris Saint-Germain have suffered their next home defeat. The star ensemble from the capital lost 1-0 to Olympique Lyon in their own stadium on Sunday. Bradley Barcola (56th minute) scored the goal of the day.
But the goal was not the only anomaly in the game of the top team. When the stadium announcer announced the line-up, Lionel Messi was hissed at by his own supporters. After the bitter end in the Champions League, dissatisfaction with the world champion’s performance had grown.
Messi doesn’t want a pay cut
Most recently, an ultra group has already announced whistles against Messi. It said: «We will boo Messi on Sunday. His salary is too high in relation to what he does on the pitch.” According to a new report, Messi is expected to rake in a good 40 million a year. It’s significantly less than Mbappé earns, but it’s probably still too much for the supporters.
His contract expires in the summer. According to various media, an extension should not be ruled out. However, the multiple world footballer would probably have to accept salary cuts for this. So far, this should not be an option for Messi. There are always rumors that Messi could also return to Barcelona. The vice-president of the Catalans recently confirmed talks. In addition, the Saudi Arabian first division club Al-Hilal and Inter Miami from the MLS are said to be interested.
In the Ligue 1 table, PSG are still six points ahead of closest pursuers Olympique Marseille and RC Lens. Lyon is ninth after matchday 29. Since the beginning of the year alone, PSG have lost eight times in all competitions combined.
