Neither Mbappé nor money, the reason why Messi has not yet renewed with PSG
Far from wanting to hog the limelight the Frenchman desires, Leo is still not renewing his tie for a specific reason.
Lionel Messi decided to stop negotiations with PSG and it was revealed that, although everything is on track, he will wait until the Champions League round of 16 against Bayern Munich. Now, it is revealed the reason why the maximum winner of the Ballon d’Or (7) has not yet renewed his contract with the Parisians and it has nothing to do with the economic issue or with Kylian Mbappé.
Far from wanting to enter into a dispute with ‘Donatello’, who wants to hog the limelight in the squad led by Christophe Galtier, Messi has not yet signed his contract extension with the current Ligue 1 champion. The Argentina international wants to stay in Paris, but there is a main reason that stalls the negotiations.
Against Toulouse, the reason why Messi has not yet confirmed his continuity at PSG became evident. After the injuries of Mbappé and Neymar, the ’10’ of the Albiceleste was accompanied by Hugo Ekitike and Carlos Soler on the last day of Ligue 1. The best in history looked uncomfortable in front of the little associative game and would have a demand not to move from Paris.
The condition that Lionel Messi would set to stay at PSG:
Fabrizio Romano revealed that PSG is preparing a formal offer with an economic improvement for Leo, however, the Argentine would ask to hierarchize the squad. In any eventuality, Galtier’s team does not have players of weight that could be a help to Messi, who wants to continue winning local and international titles.
