French football club Paris Saint-Germain will soon enter into negotiations with striker Lionel Messi to sign a new contract, reports As with reference to L’Equipe.
As noted in the material, PSG are satisfied with the seven-time winner of the Golden Ball and intend to keep him in the team. The agreement with the 35-year-old Argentine is calculated until 2023, the Parisians expect to renew the contract with him for the season.
Earlier there were rumors in the media that Messi could return to Barcelona in 2023, but now there is no contact between the player’s entourage and the Catalan club. The player is focused on winning all the titles in the current team and winning the world championship.
Messi moved to Paris Saint-Germain last summer after the Blaugrana failed to renew his contract. Last season, the striker played 34 matches for the French team, scored 11 goals and gave 15 assists.
