  • Lionel Messi is set to sign a new one-year contract this week to stay at PSG

Lionel Messi is set to extend his stay with Paris Saint-Germain and sign a one-year contract extension with the French champions this week.

Messi is out of contract at the end of the season and there has been speculation about where he might be playing his football next year.

There were strong links to a return to former club Barcelona, ​​while there were some suggestions that David Beckham’s Inter Miami were close to bringing the Argentine star to MLS.

Lionel Messi will stay at PSG and sign a new one-year contract with the club until June 2024.

However, according to Mark now everything points to the 35-year-old putting pen to paper on a new one-year contract until June 30, 2024.

A Messi offer had been on the table since the start of PSG’s season, evidence the club was interested in keeping the megastar in Paris.

It is believed that before the World Cup the bases of the new contract had been agreed by both parties, and Messi is now set to give the green light to announce the new deal this week.

Messi had scored 12 times in 19 games for the French champions before the World Cup break

There was some speculation that Messi could return to former club Barcelona next season.

Messi joined PSG in an emotional transfer from Barcelona in 2021. In his first season he scored 11 goals in 34 games and although the French outfit regained the Ligue 1 championship, Messi was slow to settle at the club.

However, this campaign has seen the World Cup winner eclipse his performances and statistics from last year, as he scored 12 goals in 19 games before the break for events in Qatar.

The new deal signals Messi’s intention to stay in one of Europe’s top leagues and allows PSG to boast the continued inclusion of last month’s World Cup hero as one of its star attractions.

Messi will return to PSG later this month after a memorable World Cup victory in Qatar in December.

Messi is expected to return to PSG after his World Cup exploits this month, where he could ironically renew his long-term rivalry with Cristiano Ronaldo.

PSG are scheduled to travel to Saudi Arabia to face a combined side of Ronaldo’s new team, Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal, billed as the Riyadh Season Cup.

The friendly tournament has been rearranged after the original date had to be postponed due to Covid. He could now see Ronaldo lining up for his new club and use it as a warm-up match for Messi after his World Cup celebrations.
