Paris: Messi will stay at the PSG club. A new report from Le Parisien states that the player’s contract with the club has been extended until the 2023-24 season. There were rumors that Messi would leave the club next season after the World Cup and go to an American club or Barca. Meanwhile, Messi and PSG reached an agreement to extend his contract to stay at the club.

Messi, who played for Barcelona for 21 years, arrived at PSG on August 10, 2021. Messi’s contract expires at the end of the current season. PSG have already announced that they will discuss extending Messi’s contract after the World Cup. The president of PSG, Nasser Al Khelaifi, said that Messi is happy to stay at the club in Paris and that he wants to stay at the club.

At the same time, there have been talks about whether Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi, who competed head to head in the World Cup, will continue together at PSG. Mbappe has previously stated that he wants to move to Real Madrid. With the rumors that Messi will go to the American League club Inter Miami next year, the doubt that Mbappé and Messi will not stay together at the club has strengthened.
