Former darling of the Parc des Princes, Javier Pastore deplored the preferential treatment of the Parisian public towards Lionel Messi.
Welcomed to Paris in August 2021 as a true rock star, Lionel Messi left two years later to the whistles of the public at the Parc des Princes. It must be said that the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner has not shown himself to be very involved within the Ile-de-France club, also maintaining a certain distance with the supporters. Not to mention that he beat Kylian Mbappé’s France in the World Cup final…
“I didn’t like the way they treated Messi”
A preferential treatment that Javier Pastore did not understand, who made a small tackle to the fans of the Rouge et Bleu. “I didn’t like the way they treated Messi, as if it happened to any other teammate. But football and fans are like that, they decide who they like or not…”lamented El Flaco during an interview with transalpine journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
“The World Cup victory against France had a huge impact”
And to add: “The World Cup victory against France had a huge impact on Leo. Everything that was a little negative made it weigh a little more on him, because Argentina had won. » Argentina’s coronation at the World Cup 2022 inevitably did not help La Pulga enter the hearts of Parisian supporters. Landed this summer at Inter Miami, Lionel Messi has found the smile and love of the fans of the franchise co-owned by David Beckham.
