Lionel Messi had other offers but chose PSG
During his emotional final press conference at Camp Nou, Lionel Messi confirmed that in an ideal world, he would have continued at Barcelona. Unfortunately, since the financial regulations by La Liga proved to be a stumbling block, the mercurial forward has been forced to look for a new club.
Lionel Messi also admitted that several clubs were in touch with him, with PSG being one of the prime candidates in the race for his signature. After assessing his options, it now seems like Lionel Messi has finally decided on his future.
