Lionel Messi move to PSG rumors continue. Now the sports director fueled the discussion about a possible transfer.
PSG sporting director Leonardo has reignited rumors of a possible summer move from Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi.
“Big players like Messi will always be on PSG’s list,” the 51-year-old told France Football. The French series champion is “at the big table of the clubs that are closely following the matter. Strictly speaking, no, we’re not seated yet, but our chair is reserved just in case.”
“Four months is an eternity in football, especially at this time,” added Leonardo, however, with a view to Messi’s contract ending in June. When his working paper expires, the Argentine would be on the market free of charge. The 33-year-old has been able to negotiate his future with other clubs since January of this year. According to information from Goal and SPOX The six-time Ballon d’Or winner has not yet been contacted by any club.
