The future of Lionel Messi is at the heart of all questions at the end of the season. A return to his training club, FC Barcelona, is always mentioned for the PSG playmaker.
At the end of the contract with Paris Saint-Germain, Lionel Messi will not extend the adventure in the French capital. Facing the press before PSG’s final league match against Clermont, coach Christophe Galtier went a little further by confirming the upcoming departure of the six-time Ballon d’Or.

In the columns of Mundo Deportivo, Xavi has clearly opened the door to the current playmaker of Paris Saint-Germain.
