On Monday, we got a brand new attempt from PSG to sign Leo Messi. We have all the details of their most recent way to destabilize Barcelona.
FC Barcelona is fed-up with PSG’s several attempts to distract Leo Messi by going after him in the transfer window. We’ve seen all types of tactics from Neymar trying to speak it into existence. To Leonardo himself confirming the French giants have every intention of signing him. But the Parisian press already started getting into the conversation with their several gossip and rumors about the Argentine.
On Monday, France Football released a cover where you can see Messi wearing the PSG kit. This comes one week before the French giants have to face FC Barcelona in the Champions League. Having the French press doing these rumors and news on this week can’t be a coincidence. It’s clear they are pushing to either convince Messi to make a decision or at least distract FC Barcelona from their main target. Leo already stated he is tired of all the rumors because he still hasn’t made a decision.
The timing also matches Messi’s best moment.
Although the timing of this cover matches the upcoming Champions League match, there’s also Leo Messi’s current form. FC Barcelona have massively improved over the last month with the Argentine leading the pack. At the start of the season, there was doubt about Ronald Koeman’s capabilities but he managed to dissipate them. After months of hard work and grinding in practice, the Dutch manager can say he finally found a squad he can rely on for titles.
Perhaps La Liga is not possible at the moment due to Atletico Madrid’s impressive start. But winning the Champions League and Copa del Rey is a different story. In France, they know how dangerous the Blaugranas can be. This is another reason they are doing everything in their power to distract them from next week’s crunch game.
