Leo Messi has become a new player in the Paris Saint Germain, and does so after an unexpected farewell to the FC Barcelona After 17 years of career with the Barça shirt, the Argentine player now has a new stage in the Parque de los Príncipes, where he will become, as he already was in his time in the culé team, in the highest paid player of the staff that directs Mauricio Pochettino.
And it is that the Argentine will charge 40 million euros For each of the two seasons that the PSG shirt wears, there is also a transfer bonus that would increase this amount to 60 million euros, far from what the Argentine player was going to charge in that renewal contract with him. Barcelona finally Joan Laporta could not execute due to non-compliance with the Financial Fair Play imposed by LaLiga and that has resulted in this strange situation of seeing Messi with another shirt that is not the Barcelona one.
It was not his first choice
However, according to Onefootball, Before committing himself to PSG, Leo Messi knocked on the door of the Bayern Munich, powerful club that could aspire to have him in its squad. In the German team they have justified their refusal to address their signing due to the problems that it would have entailed in their dressing room.
Karl-Heinz Rummennigge, the chief executive of Bayern, has justified his rejection of Messi in Sport Bild: “We did not try to sign Messi, it was not going to work for several reasons. In economic terms, it was going to be a transfer that was going to bring problems to the dressing room. The players now know what all their teammates earn and bring someone like Messi to us it would force to raise the level of our salaries “.
