Funny how what goes around comes around…
Lionel Messi’s contract renewal at Paris Saint-Germain is being a real headache for PSG, for the board of directors and also for the fans, who have no guarantee of being able to count on their player for a long time. The curious thing is that at the beginning of the year, the feelings about Lionel‘s renewal were positive, however, according to ‘Le Parisien’, everything would seem to indicate that the Argentine is not completely convinced and that the conversations between his father and the board, they would have stagnated.
As if that were not enough drama in the Parisian entity, the team does not go through its best level sportingly speaking either, because despite the fact that they are still leaders of Ligue 1, with five points above Olympique Marseille, the team’s performances are not convincing and prove of this was the painful and unexpected defeat at the Parc des Princes against Bayern Munich, leaving them on the verge of knocking out the UEFA Champions League.
While PSG works on the renewal of Lionel Messi, they also look sideways at what happens with Christophe Galtier, who fails to recover the version shown by the Parisians before the World Cup in Qatar. From France they mention that the Ligue 1 champion’s board is analyzing two folders to replace manager. One of the candidates had a small altercation with Jorge Messi, father of the top winner of the Ballon d’Or (7).
The portal ‘RMC Sport’ announced that the PSG board is not calm with the work that Galtier does. Although he was excited with the first part of the season, after the World Cup he looks unrecognizable. They were knocked out of the French Cup, lost at home to Bayern Munich, in the Champions League round of 16, and were unable to maintain their unbeaten record in Ligue 1.
In this context, if a new setback for PSG materialized, the Parisian leadership would consider Thomas Tuchel and Thiago Motta as Galtier‘s replacements. The German starts with an advantage, because he is liked by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of the club. Although Thiago Motta is also appreciated, since he played in the French team, but his inexperience would put a brake on being chosen as the manager.
Thiago Motta and the fight he had with Jorge Messi:
The Brazilian was Lionel Messi‘s teammate at FC Barcelona. A few years ago, he recalled in an interview for ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport’ the discussion with Jorge Messi, father of the ‘Flea‘: “In a training session I hit Leo very hard and his father came to scold me and tell me I was going too hard . The truth was that it was the only way to stop him.”
