Lionel Messi has spoken out about the jeers he received from Paris Saint-Germain supporters Insisting that there was a rift with fans. After serving a two-week suspension for traveling to Saudi Arabia, Messi was mocked by some PSG fans. Christophe Galtier and had Marquinhos had defended the World Cup winner.
Messi has said that there are some supporters who simply cannot support him, also pointing that Neymar and Kylian Mbappe have endured similar treatment, with the latter being the object of a protest in the 2022–23 season.
He said: “At first it was great, I received a lot of encouragement as I’ve often said, but then people started to treat me differently, some of the Paris fans. The majority, on the other hand, treated me as well as they did at the start.”
“There was a rift with a large section of the Paris crowd. Of course it wasn’t my intention. But these are things that have already happened with Mbappé and Neymar too, it’s their way of doing things. But I still remember all those people who supported me, as they did at the start.”
Messi was unable to assist PSG in achieving their ultimate objective because they failed to win the Champions League while he was a core member of the team, despite the fact that he won two Ligue 1 championships before his contract expired. Next month, Messi will make his Miami debut against Cruz Azul after completing his move there.
