Paris Saint-Germain confirm Lionel Messi will leave club at end of season

Lionel Messi will leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of season after two years in Ligue 1, the club confirmed on Saturday.

“After two seasons in the French capital, Leo Messi’s adventure with Paris Saint-Germain will come to an end at the conclusion of the 2022-23 campaign,” PSG said in a statement.

Messi’s future at the club had been the subject of much speculation recently, with a source close to the Argentina captain saying he had received a formal offer to join Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal next season. Messi has also been linked with a return to Barcelona, and with a move to MLS side Inter Miami.

Paris Saint-Germain would like to warmly thank the seven-time Ballon d'Or, winner of a Trophée des Champions and two French championship titles wearing the Red & Blue colors.#MerciMessi
