The end of Lionel Messi in psg is imminent and Christopher Galtier took it upon himself to confirm it. The Argentine says goodbye to the Parisian team at the end of the season, with a frictionless relationship with the leaders and fans who practically forced him to make this decision. He prepares a tribute in the Parc des Princes, for what will be the last game of the number ’30 ′ in the league 1.
“I had the privilege of coaching the best player in the history of football. It will be Leo’s last game at the Parc des Princes against Clermont, and I hope he receives the warmest of welcomes. This year he has been an important part of the team, he has always been available ”Galtier mentioned.
The strategist added: “I don’t think any of the comments or criticisms are justified. When you have a season with the World Cup on the horizon and you end up with stats of 21 goals and 20 assists… He’s always been there for the team. It has been a great privilege to accompany him throughout the season”.
In November 2022 an agreement between Messi and PSG was speculated, but it was postponed due to his participation in the World Cup. As time passed, the relationship broke up. The last trip to Saudi Arabia (had to apologize for going AWOL) was the main trigger. The fans also began to react negatively and his departure was a fact. The Argentine star will leave Paris.
