Gеrаrd Ріquе, thе fоrmеr Ваrсеlоnа dеfеndеr, bеlіеvеs thаt thе сlub shоuld nоt рut tоо muсh рrеssurе оn а роssіblе rеturn fоr Lіоnеl Меssі tо thе Саtаlаn gіаnts.
When questioned about recent comments by current Barcelona Vice-President Rafa Yuste regarding a possible return for Lionel Messi to the Camp Nou, Gerard Pique took a cautious approach. The club’s legendary defender acknowledged that it would be “amazing,” but emphasized that they shouldn’t force things.
“I know Rafa Yuste, and I know how he is. He’s a really good person, and he’ll always tell you what you want to hear,” said the former Barca defender. “Of course, it would be amazing for all Barca fans if Leo came back. But there comes a moment when forcing things ends up being counter-productive. I’d let him choose himself, so it’s natural. If it ends up being done, it’ll be done. If both sides want it, the move will happen no matter how long it takes.”
Just last week, Rafa Yuste made a surprising statement, revealing that the club had been in contact with the Argentine star whose contract at PSG expires this June.
Messi has not yet renewed his contract in Paris, raising questions about where he will be playing his football next season. There have been several rumors lately that have placed him further and further away from the French capital. Only time will tell what the man from Rosario will end up doing come the summer.
Messi whistled at Parc des Princes once more.
The relationship between PSG fans and Lionel Messi is not the best in the world. Once again, the Parc des Princes crowd whistled and booed the name of the Argentine when they announced the starting line-up on the megaphone before the game against Lyon.
Paris Saint-Germain supporters are still unforgiving for Leo Messi, and the Argentine was whistled once more at home. Before the start of another game, the Parisian fans whistled the Argentine World Cup champion.
The Parc des Princes fans repeated the gesture to one of their players before the game. Pochettino’s team is currently at home to Olympique Lyonnais in another classic.
The man from Rosario is set to play together with Kylian Mbappe up front for his side, but the PSG faithful are still sure that they prefer the Frenchman over the ex-Barcelona man.
The exact moment occurred when the loudspeaker started to go through the starting 11 one by one before kick-off. It’s worth remembering that the number 30 (referring to Messi) decided not to applaud his fans after the 0-2 loss against Stade de Rennes.
