Leandro Paredes has been one of the players in the last few weeks who publicly philosophized about a potential move from Lionel Messi to Paris Saint-Germain. He has since been banned from speaking on this subject.

Paris Saint-Germain reacted to previous statements by some star players from their own ranks and muzzled their players in the Lionel Messi cause.
“You asked me not to say anything more,” says Paredes in an interview with LE JOURNAL DU DIMANCHE. “Some people didn’t like what I said. Some saw it as disrespectful. I didn’t feel that way.”
Comments have been heard from various corners in the last few weeks, which were clearly aimed at luring Messi to the Seine. In addition to players like Neymar and Angel Di Maria, coach Mauricio Pochettino and head of sport Leonardo came up with some explosive statements.

“Messi at PSG? I hope so, we all want him to come,” Paredes told ESPN in December. La Pulga’s compatriot does not consider his choice of words to be dangerous because it is only Messi who has to make a decision about his future at the end of the season.
Meanwhile, the Messi files are finally moving. After Joan Laporta was confirmed as the new club president, father and advisor Jorge Messi reportedly went to Barcelona on Monday to discuss his son’s future with Laporta.
