According to prestige Trademarks in Spain, PSG leaders want to offer Lionel Messi a contract renewal. Sources close to the club indicate that the Parisians have in mind the renewal for 1 extra year, but the attitude of the Argentine star is still not clear.
In the past, many sports media reported that there is a clause in the current contract between the player and the club, which allows the parties to extend their cooperation. But this turned out to be untrue. The 6-time Ballon d'Or winner has not yet been presented with a concrete proposal, however this is expected to happen very soon.
Despite this, sources close to the Argentine superstar have suggested that it is still too early for the striker to decide on his future. Some of these voices say that Messi will wait for the end of World Cup, which will be played at the end of this year. The player will then take his time to better analyze the future and the options he has on the table.
During his first year in Paris, the former Barcelona star faced many difficulties. Adaptation, injuries and Covid-19 stopped him from giving his best at the Parc des Princes. This led to the Argentine playing only 10 consecutive matches with the Parisians, something unheard of during his time at Barcelona.
In addition to the extraordinary talent, there is another reason why PSG wants to renew the contract with "the flea". Messi is a very valuable asset and at the financial level! The Parisian club has benefited from extraordinary figures from the marketing and image rights of the Argentinian footballer. The season we left behind was the most profitable for PSG president Nasser al Khelaifi. This is also related to the big brands that Messi brought with him to Paris, among them: Dior, Volt, Autohero, GOAT, etc.
