He can’t help it. Each interview with Lionel Messi since his departure from Paris-SG resembles therapy where bitterness reigns. The former FC Barcelona player systematically empties his bag by sending barbs to the Parisian club, which welcomed him in the summer of 2021. In an interview broadcast on the OLGA YouTube channel, the Argentine striker drew once in the direction from the capital club, on a subject that he had not yet addressed: his return to Paris after his World Cup victory in January in Qatar. “La Pulga” criticizes a lack of recognition from PSG. “I was the only player (among the world champions) who did not have recognition,” declared Lionel Messi, who was not entitled to a presentation of the World Cup at the Parc des Princes .

Remember that Messi was honored at Camp des Loges. He also emphasized at the time that he did not particularly want to be celebrated in front of the Parisian public. Finally, let us add that this is not the first time that a selection coronation has not been highlighted at the club. For other reasons, Liverpool had, for example, ignored the African champion title won by Sadio Mané’s Senegal against… Mo Salah’s Egypt a few years ago.

The Argentinian, however, clarified that he “got along well” with Kylian Mbappé and considered the frustration of the French public “understandable”: “I was at the place against whom we won the final.” Before concluding: “It’s true that it didn’t go as I hoped.” Enough to shed light on the tumultuous history between “La Pulga” and Paris-SG. A story that did not turn sour due to Argentina’s coronation against France at the World Cup
