Arsene Wegner, technical director that at present finds without team, has declared that thinks that the Paris Saint-Germain has to think it twice before sign to Messi

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The rumours on the exit of Lionel Messi of the FC Barcelona follow appearing numerosamente and, if they are not noises directly related with the player and some club, the news that go out in this regard they are on the vision or the statements of some figure of the football, regarding the relacionamiento of the Argentinian with one of the teams that it pretienden. The Manchester City, the Paris Saint-Germain and until the Inter of Milan have positioned like main "girlfriends" of the 10 Barcelona.

Of recent form, one of the figures that has gone out to declare on what thinks on the hypothetical exit of Messi to some new club, has been Arsene Wegner, French and ex trainer director technical of the Arsenal. The same, without employment from his exit of the group "Gunner" in 2018, commented to the radio Europe 1 that thinks that the signing of the Argentinian by the PSG would not be the best investment for the team of the French capital.

This is due to that the group directed by Thomas Tuchel already explains in his staff with Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, two of the players with better present in the world-wide football and, of course, also with a more promising future, in case of the attacker of 21 years. Joint them with Messi could, according to the opinion of the French trainer, cause a tactical and economic disequilibrium in the surroundings of the PSG.

Statements of Wegner on the "case Messi"

On the possible arrival of Lionel Messi to the Paris Saint-Germain, Arsene Wegner has declared the following to Europe 1: "Lionel Messi is one of the two better players of the world. Those that will substitute to Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi already are in the PSG (Neymar and Mbappé). After this, is a question of balance in a club, a balance to technical level and also to economic level. It can maintain a balance in the PSG incorporating to players like Messi? I am not safe".

In spite of the thought of Wegner, which can have a lot of true, Leonardo, exfutbolista and sportive director of the Parisian team, has admitted that has thought in the incorporation of the Argentinian to the staff of the same. This could give without that the PSG pay neither a euro, due to the fact that Messi finalises his agreement with the Barcelona in June of the next year, but, this yes, surely the pretence salarial of the rosarino will not be something easy to assume by part of the directive of Paris.
