Messi’s poor performance after the World Cup; PSG will bring the new player to the club soon; Report
Lionel Messi was not able to perform well for PSG in the match against Reims in the French league last night. PSG were leading by one goal but Reims scored the equalizer at the end of the game.
Messi was criticized after the game. The criticism is that the player missed a golden opportunity in the game and that Messi’s performance suddenly went down after the World Cup.
The coach Christophe Gaultier also said that he is not satisfied with the performance of the players and that he will change the team and make a stronger group.
The report is now coming out that PSG are trying to bring in another player in Messi’s position.
PSG are eyeing Moroccan Hakeem Siachi, who currently plays for Chelsea. According to a report by Fabrizio Romano, a leading sports journalist, it is stated that Ziach is ready to sign with PSG.
Ziach, the main player in Chelsea’s Champions League-winning side, also produced a superb performance for Morocco’s history-making team at the last World Cup. But at Chelsea, the star is not a permanent presence in the team.
PSG are set to sign Hakim Ziyech, here we go! Agreement agreed and unlocked on loan transfer until June, NO purchase option clause included. 🚨🔴🔵🇲🇦 #PSG
Paris Saint-Germain have a contract in place with Chelsea, medically done.
Ziyech only wanted PSG.

There are also reports that Ziach is preparing to leave the club due to the fact that opportunities will decrease even more at Chelsea, who are doing a lot by bringing in many new players in the January transfer window.
Meanwhile, for the first time since the World Cup, coach Christophe Gaultier fielded the team in a 4-2-4 formation with Messi, Mbappe and Neymar in the starting XI. But Reims looked to dominate from the start despite the absence of any key players.
Neymar scored the goal for PSG. After Neymar’s goal in the second half, Marco Verratti was sent off with a red card and PSG finished the game with ten men. This is the second time in the season that PSG have drawn against Reims.
Gaultier said it was disappointing to concede the equalizer in the 95th minute despite being ahead for most of the game and having experienced players. Gatlier said it was a performance that affected the team’s confidence along with the loss of points.
After a goalless first half, PSG took an early lead in the second half thanks to Neymar’s goal, and Florian Bologne equalized for Reims in the second half.
