See Why Lionel Messi Transfer To PSG Has Been a ‘Failure’

Lionel Messi

Messi made the shocking move to Paris Saint-Germain in 2021 after previously spending his entire senior career at Barcelona.

At the time, Barcelona were unable to tie him down to a new contract due to La Liga’s wage limits.

Messi has not been able to consistently produce his best level at PSG, and his future at the club is unclear. His contract expires at the end of the season.

Rothen seem unimpressed by the World Cup winner’s contribution at Parc des Princes and has suggested that he is still suffering mentally from his exit at Camp Nou.

Anomaly Since Arrival

“Lionel Messi has been an anomaly since he arrived.

“It’s hard to talk like that about such a player who has marked the history of football so much,” the former PSG star told RMC Sport.

“But that’s the reality unfortunately in relation to his investment and in relation to his performance. Quite simply. He can’t get through the course, for many reasons.

“Most certainly he feels a bit orphaned by Barcelona.

“Even if he says that in his life today it has improved, you can’t see it on the pitch.

“It can’t be seen, there’s no particular fulfilment on the pitch apart from maybe the free kick at the last second against Lille.

“I’m totally in the direction of the club today.

“Luis Campos must take responsibility, admit that the arrival of Lionel Messi was not necessarily a good thing and that it was a failure,” he stressed.

Messi has improved in his second season at PSG, following an underwhelming debut campaign.

The Argentina international has 16 goals and 14 assists to his name from 27 appearances across all competitions this term, including a last-gasp winner against Lille last time out.
