Messi in France ahead of signing with Paris Saint-Germain
Argentine star Lionel Messi has arrived in Paris after concluding a transfer agreement on a two year deal with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Barcelona had on Sunday announced and held a farewell press conference in honour of Messi, who started his football career at the club at the age of 13.
The six-time Ballon d’Or winner remains Barca’s highest goal scorer, netting 682 in 742 appearances in 21 years of his stay with the Spanish side.
Messi will be reuniting with his former Barca teammate Neymar and young France striker, Kylian Mbappe in PSG, adding much firepower to the French side’s attack.
