Paris Saint-Germain would like to validate the optional year of Lionel Messi at all costs. A choice that Daniel Riolo absolutely does not understand.
What will happen to Lionel Messi at the end of the season? Will the 2022 world champion with Argentina stay one more year at Paris Saint-Germain? Will he prefer to fly to Major League Soccer or try the adventure in Saudi Arabia to offer himself a few last football matches with Cristiano Ronaldo? The unknown remains. But according to Parisian rumors, PSG is doing its best to convince the seven-time Ballon d’Or to activate the optional year that remains. A force that some do not understand.
But then not at all for Daniel Riolo who made it known on social networks. The journalist obviously believes that the choice to keep Lionel Messi would not be the right one for PSG. ” It is said that extending Messi is a priority in Doha. If this is confirmed, then there is nothing more (sic) to hope for from PSG… And to call on Parisian aficionados to the rescue. ” The CUP? Real supporters? There are still more to save this club? »
Whistled at the Park?
If he seems to judge that Paris Saint-Germain is in distress, Daniel Riolo does not count on Lionel Messi to save him from the waters. A masterstroke in terms of marketing, the recruitment of the former FC Barcelona player is indeed not a complete success in sporting terms. Recruited with the hope that he would help Paris reach a new (and ultimate) milestone in the Champions League, the player was not this famous “X factor” so long awaited.

The next few weeks should be decisive in the decision that Lionel Messi will take. Whilehe could be taken again in dislike and whistled by a part of the supporters, this evening during the reception of Stade Rennais (28th day of Ligue 1), the trend is not really for an extension. But there is still time to reflect.
