PSG Suspend Messi For Two Weeks

Lionel Messi has been suspended by Paris Saint Germain (PSG).
The French Ligue 1 side suspended Messi for allegedly embarking on an unapproved trip to Saudi Arabia.
Messi, who has an ambassadorial role with the oil-rich Arabian country, was said to have been there on commercial duties.
The suspension comes on the back of poor performances by the French capital club’s players, including Messi, who featured in an embarrassing 3-1 loss to Lorient on Sunday.
According to BBC, despite the fact that the club’s hierarchy did not approve the trip, the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner left France for Saudi Arabia.
The decision has landed the 35-year-old forward a two-week ban.
The Barcelona and Argentina legend is set to miss matches against Troyes and Ajaccio.
Messi, who joined the club two years ago, is coming to the expiration of his two-year contract in June, and there are indications the World Cup winner will not sign an extension.
He has scored 31 goals and secured 34 assists in 71 matches for the Paris club.
He could win the French League title with PSG who have a five-point lead at the top of the league with five matches left to play.

It’s Not Kylian Saint-Germain – Mbappe Slams PSG Over Video Without Messi, Neymar

Kylian Mbappe, the Paris Saint-Germain striker, has slammed his club.

He hit out at the club after they released a video to promote season ticket sales.

Mbappe insists the Ligue 1 club shot the video without informing him how the interview would be used.

The video released on Wednesday features snippets from an interview with the France international.

It does not feature other big names at PSG like Lionel Messi and Neymar and links to the ticketing section on PSG’s website.

“I’ve just taken part in the season ticketing campaign of the club for 2023-24.

“At no moment was I informed of the content of the interview… It looked like a basic interview at a club marketing day.

“I do not agree with the video that was published. This is why I am fighting for individual image rights. PSG is a great club and a great family, but it is certainly not Kylian Saint-Germain,” Mbappe said on social media.

Barcelona Confirm Talks To Re-sign Lionel Messi From Paris Saint Germain

Spanish Football club, Barcelona has confirmed it is making plans to re-sign Lionel Messi.
Barca vice president, Rafa Yuste confirmed that the club contacted Messi about a possible return to the club this summer.
The Argentine superstar famously left Barca in tears in 2021. He then joined Paris Saint Germain as a free agent and signed a two-year contract which expires on June 30.
The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner’s deal at the Parc des Princes came with the option of an additional year that Messi has thus far been reluctant to take up.
Mundo Deportivo has reported on Friday that PSG are willing to offer Messi “more money and more years” than just the additional “plus one”.
On Thursday, French sports outlet L’Equipe reported that Messi currently takes home €3.375 million ($3.7 million) a month from the Ligue 1 giants, which puts him third behind teammates Neymar in second and leader Kylian Mbappe.
Speaking earlier today in Spain, Yustewhile holding a press conference, confirmed his club’s interest in re-signing Messi.
“Leo [Messi] and his family know the affection I have for them. I participated in the negotiations that unfortunately did not lead to a successful conclusion,” Yuste began, reminiscing about the Argentine’s exit.
“I have the thorn in my side that Leo could not continue in our club. If we are talking about La Masia and grassroots football, we are talking about Messi.
 
“Of course I would love for him to come back, for what it could represent at a sporting, social and economic level. We are in contact with them, yes,” Yuste confirmed.

Kylian Mbappe Discloses His Future at PSG

Following Kylian Mbappe’s announcement regarding his future at the club, there was excellent news for Paris Saint-Germain supporters.

The France midfielder’s future has been in question for the past week with the revelation that Mbappe has asked to leave PSG in January. The player claims that the rumors are untrue because he never requested a transfer to the team.

I am very happy, I never asked to leave in January. The info came out on the day of the match ( against Benfica), I am sure not even remotely involved in this news. I was just as shocked as everyone else. People may think I’m involved but I’m not involved at all, I was taking a nap. My entourage was at my little brother’s game, all the people who take care of me weren’t there so we were flabbergasted when we found out. Afterwards, we had to deal with it, there was a game to play. Just to say it’s completely wrong and I’m very happy.

After Paris Saint-Ligue Germain’s 1 match against Olympique Marseille, Mbappe revealed this to RMC Sports. The teenage player extended his contract with PSG during the summer 2021 transfer window, keeping him with the team through 2023.

“He [Messi] is isolated, he is on the ball less. I wouldn’t say he’s sad, but he’s isolated. I prefer him through the middle. I’m having trouble with Leo out on the right. In the middle, he can set the tempo. Something needs to be found in order to get Mbappe, Neymar and Messi to play together. I don’t think he can make the difference on the right, but then I don’t have the exact details from the tactical standpoint, Obviously, when you stay high up and you get out of the way, you won’t have an impact. Then you have fewer balls going towards him. Messi doesn’t speak a lot, he speaks with the ball,” Henry said. “For now, it’s Kylian’s team. Kylian is the one who’s making it shine most of all. The ball goes more towards him. At any single moment, there can only be one conductor, otherwise you can’t play at the same tempo. And in this team, there are too many conductors.”
