DBasia.news – World football superstar, Lionel Messi, reportedly has a unique agreement with his new club, Paris Saint-Germain. In this clause, Messi can make PSG his second choice. So, who will La Pulga prioritize? Is it Barcelona?
PSG moved quickly after Barcelona announced they were parting with Lionel Messi. Both sides failed to find a way to get around LaLiga’s rules regarding the limit on wages for the season. As a result, the story that has been engraved for 21 years has stopped.
Lionel Messi has signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain. In addition, PSG can also increase the duration of the 34-year player’s contract for one more season. According to reports from France, Messi receives a salary of 35 million euros per season.
Furthermore, media from Argentina, TyC Sports, also revealed details about Messi’s contract. According to them, there is a clause that allows Messi to make official matches and friendly matches of the Argentine national team a priority.
That way, PSG cannot prohibit Messi from defending the Albiceleste. Messi entered the clause in order to perform optimally at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Messi is confident after helping Argentina win the 2021 Copa America.
In addition, there is also an agreement that states that the staff of the Argentine national team have access to PSG facilities. This benefits Argentina because at PSG there are four other Argentine players namely Angel Di Maria, Leandro Paredes, and Mauro Icardi.
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi will wear the number 30 jersey at Paris Saint-Germain. Ligue 1 has made concessions because previously the number could only be used by goalkeepers.
Messi prefers the number 30 jersey instead of 10. In fact, Neymar, the owner of the number 10 jersey, voluntarily offered it to his best friend.
