Lionel Messi is considered by many to be the ‘GOAT’ of football. The brilliant acronym, which stands for ‘greatest of all time’, has become synonymous with the Paris Saint-Germain star as he competes with Pele, Cristiano Ronaldo and Diego Maradona to be considered the sport’s number one in history.
And while you all no doubt have a strong opinion on whether or not Messi deserves that title either way, we can all agree that him and his seven Ballon d’Or trophies at least deserve to be in the conversation.
But even if there are still ardent Messi haters shaking their heads at that statement, nobody is going to be able to forget the ‘GOAT’ narrative surrounding the Argentine superstar next season.
That’s because Messi and the PSG squad will literally have the word ‘GOAT’ on their shirts for the 2022/23 campaign. This week, the French champions released their new home for the upcoming season, cutting a divisive look of a central white stripe with red trimmings on the club’s classic navy background.
