Leo Messi has distanced himself from the statements made by Ángel Di María that placed him signing for PSG for the next season. As told Manu Carreño in 'El Larguero' of Cadena SER, the Barcelona forward detaches himself from these words: “As we have learned in SER, Leo stands out from what Di María, Paredes or Neymar said because it already seems that in each mixed zone of PSG a player is going to come out saying that there are many possibilities that Messi will go to the Parisian team. Neymar started, Paredes kept pulling the thread and now comes Di María. Leonardo said it in the interview and even Messi can end up looking like an accomplice and many, like Koeman or Victor Font said, speak of lack of respect for Barcelona although I think that Barça did the same or something very similar talking about the interest they had in signing Neymar when he was a PSG player “.
Carreno He cited the circumstances in which these events occur: “This occurs 12 days after the Champions League tie between PSG and Barça, but I insist From the environment of Leo they tell us that Messi is very tired of his name being permanently in the leaks and that all this that is being said does not influence at all when making his decision. Messi has not, to date, made the decision about his future and until there is no president and I talk to him I suppose that nothing will be known and he will not make any decision, but he stands out from everything that is coming out of Paris in the last days “.
The winks from Paris to Messi are constant and they have been heating up the atmosphere in Barcelona. The first to throw the cane to the Argentine was his friend Neymar on December 3 on ESPN: “Messi? We have to play together next year. What I want most is to be with him on the field again. He could be in my place, he has no problem. I want to play with him. ” Two days later, Leonardo tried to pour water out: “We don't touch other people's players.” However, the sports director of the Parisian club opened the door to Barça's '10': “Great players like Messi will always be on the PSG list.” A few words to which must be added those of Paredes: “We all want to play alongside Leo Messi. I also. It's natural that we all want to have such a player on our team. But these types of decisions belong to the club and the sports management, so Leonardo and our president have to convince him to bring him to the team. “The last message came this Wednesday when Angel Di Maria He assured: “There are many possibilities that Messi signs for PSG”.
At Barcelona The words of Fideo did not sit well and Koeman expressed it in the press conference after the Cup match: “It is a lack of respect. One thing is that you make a mistake once, but it seems that they want to warm up the game. Messi is a player of the Barça still “.
