PSG

Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has claimed that a decision on the future of Lionel Messi will not be made before the New Year, ...

It has given way to speculation that a return to Barcelona could be on the cards, with manager We are very happy and Leo’s very happy with us too. Messi joined PSG last year and has become a talismanic figure for the Ligue 1 champions despite a slow start to life in France.

The PSG stars are going head to head in the World Cup final between France and Argentina.

- Neymar Jr - 30 - Paris Saint-Germain - £71m (£45m on-field, £36m off-field) - Lionel Messi - 35 - Paris Saint-Germain - £99m (£54m on-field, £45m off-field) This is due largely to his staggering £90m on-field earnings. His semi-final appearance saw him equal Lothar Matthaus' haul of 25. However, if you thought this deal would have left the Ligue 1 side strapped for cash, you'd be wrong, as it handed out the biggest ever contract in football history to their other superstar, Kylian Mbappe, earlier this year. He then moved to French champions Paris Saint-Germain, where he is reportedly paid around £700,000 per week by the club.

Lionel Messi is set to meet Kylian Mbappe and France in the World Cup final later today.

Such a record for the majority of players, especially at 34, would be very good. And the women’s PSG, as usual, is doing very well.” Both, but in reality all of our players, are happy to play for PSG.

PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi has said that a decision on Lionel Messi will not be made on until next year amid speculation regarding his future.

Club and player will do what is right and in the best interests of both parties. Despite that, both have been in fine form for club and country scoring and assisting at a prolific rate. Indeed, the pair have both been subject to much speculation regarding their futures since the start of the season.
