Failing to leave from Barcelona, Pirlo said Messi had a psychological problem

DBasia.news – In the 2020 summer transfer market, Barcelona star, Lionel Messi expressed his desire to leave. But finally Messi decided to stay.

Even though he had become the target of Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, the star finally chose to abandon his intention until his contract ran out at the end of the 2020-21 season.

After subsiding, these rumors continued to emerge after Juventus coach, Andrea Pirlo revealed the current condition of La Pulga who failed to leave Camp Nou. The 41-year-old coach said Messi had psychological problems because of his failure.

“Lionel Messi is in a special moment in his life, not just a matter of career, he has problems throughout the summer transfer market. It is a matter of whether he will stay at Barcelona or not,” Pirlo said as quoted by Goal.

“When on the field, he always puts on his best and proves himself to be a valuable player. This is more than a football problem, maybe the problem he is experiencing is psychological, I don’t want to talk too far, we have nothing to do with it, “he concluded.

This is considered to be the reason for Messi’s poor performance this season, having only scored 4 goals in 10 matches in the LaLiga competition.
