Last week, Lionel Messi announced that he would be leaving PSG when his contract expires on the 30th of this month. He will begin a new journey in MLS with Inter Miami, thus ending a period of turmoil in Paris.
Despite being considered the greatest player of all time, even Messi has not been immune to criticism from fans who are not satisfied with the performance of him and his teammates at PSG, especially since PSG were eliminated early in the European Cup 1. The treatment from fans is something that Mbappe has condemned.
The 24-year-old Frenchman stressed on La Gazzetta dello Sport : "We are talking about the best player in the history of football. It will never be good news when someone like Messi leaves.
Personally, I don't understand why so many people are relieved that he's gone. We're talking about Messi, the best player in the world . He needs to be respected. But I think he didn't get the respect he deserved in France. It's a pity, but that's the way it is. We'll have to do what we can to replace him."
Messi and Mbappe are rivals and also close friends.
Messi's departure will leave PSG's attack lacking. But it will face more difficulties when Mbappe himself is looking for a way out. He hinted at this again.
“For a player like me, the goal is to win everything,” the 24-year-old striker told Gazetta Dello Sport . “But looking at the team, we know that there are shortcomings in PSG that sooner or later we will have to pay for.
I didn't say I wanted to be sold to Real Madrid or leave, I just said I wouldn't activate the option to extend for another year. With PSG, there has never been any talk about an extension."
