At the end of the contract next June, Lionel Messi remains very mysterious about his intentions. What has the gift of annoying Christophe Dugarry …
The future of Lionel Messi never stops talking. While he will be out of contract this summer, the seven-time Ballon d’Or is at the heart of many rumours. If the trend for the moment is for an extension of the Argentinian in the capital, several clubs hope to take advantage of the situation, including FC Barcelona, who dream of repatriating him to Catalonia, Inter Miami in MLS or Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia.
The person concerned maintains for the time being skilfully the vagueness as to his intentions. And the silence of the former Barcelonan seems visibly to annoy Christophe Dugarry. “In this story, I want to hear Messi speak. What does this boy want? At some point, I need him to take stock, to express himself, to come to Rothen and get on fire and explain to us that he loves PSG, that he is happy, that his performances have been less good in recent weeks for such and such a reason, that he still believes that he has the legs to be able to bring the best, that he loves this club… At one time or another, I need Messi to send me something back”he thus launched at the microphone of RMC.
Because for the former Marseillais, an extension of Lionel Messi would make little sense. At least on a sporting level. “Of course, on his performance, you are not going to say that you want to extend it, it is obvious, his performance is not up to par. Afterwards, what is Messi there for? Is he there for the marketing, for the jerseys, for the performances? »wondered the 1998 world champion.
