Having passed through Paris Saint-Germain for two seasons (2021-2023), Lionel Messi does not have excellent memories of his adventure in the capital. The attacking midfielder had become the target of Parisian supporters. So, when an opponent questions him about his visit to France, the Argentinian doesn’t beat around the bush.
No need to ask Lionel Messi about his two years at Paris Saint-Germain. In numerous media releases, the Inter Miami attacking midfielder has clearly given his feelings. The FC Barcelona legend did not like the Ile-de-France club, or even in the French capital. Nothing surprising when we remember the treatment inflicted by Parisian supporters, unhappy with his clearly superior performances and involvement in the selection.
PSG, Messi really didn’t like it
So, when midfielder Brecht Dejaegere started him on his adventure at PSG last season, Lionel Messi let go. “ At the final whistle, I asked him if he felt better in Miami than in Francetold the former Charlotte player to RTBF. He was surprised: I told him that I had played against him with Toulouse at the Parc des Princes. He didn’t remember me… but it was my childhood dream come true. Messi has always been my favorite player! It was a crazy thing (sic) to meet him… And so, that day, he told me that for him, at PSG, it was “la merda” (“mierda”). Yes, “the shit” (He bursts out laughing). »
« Because if at the beginning, the reception from the Parisians had been good, he had been taken aback following the failure in the Champions League: he was whistled for every ball and he was fed up with itsaid the Belgian who returned to Kortrijk this summer. That day, I must have made one or two mistakes on him: during the match, we forget who is who (wink). But after the match, I didn’t dare ask him for his jersey: every time, 100 guys do it to him, he’s fed up… » After reminding him of Parisian memories, Brecht Dejaegere would perhaps not have obtained the precious tunic.
