Al-hilal submits bid to Lionel Messi of contract worth €400m a year

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) superstar Lionel Messi’s future at the club is in doubt. The Argentine is in the final months of his contract but is yet to renew his deal. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has reported that Messi has been offered a new deal by Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.

Romano, however, said that Messi’s priority is to continue in Europe. Barcelona are also interested in bringing Messi back. The Blaugrana, though, are waiting for FFP clearance before sending their bid to the player.

Before the Parisians’ 2-0 home loss against Oympique Lyon at the weekend, fans booed Messi when his name was displayed on the boards of the Parc des Princes.

Emmanuel Petit slammed fans for booing Lionel Messi, telling RMC Sport:

“When I hear that, for me, it’s an insult to football, I know that today there is only a pack of dogs who only think of drooling on Neymar and Messi … If I have any advice for Messi: Get out of this club!

“This club is not a football club. It’s a pre-retirement club, even for 20-year-old players. No player has progressed since joining PSG. Is it Messi’s fault? He’s a maestro with a stick; it’s up to him to have players around him who make the effort.”
