Lionel Messi left PSG training – Christophe Galtier tried to derail him

Lionel Messi has just a few months left on his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, and the pressure on the Parc des Princes formation is growing more and more.

The elimination from the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League further deepened the chasm in which the team found themselves, and to date the officials of the French champions have not reached an agreement with Lionel Messi on the extension of the deal, which is due to take place in the summer.

One of the main reasons would be his relationship with technician Christophe Galtier.

According to journalist Adrien Grenier, Lionel Messi would have left training on Tuesday, unhappy with the exercise proposed by Christophe Galtier.

The technician tried to knock down Messi, but in vain.

Criticized by the French press for his performances in the double with Bayern Munich, the coach of “Paris Saint-Germain” came to the defense of Lionel Messi.

“I saw the criticism of Messi after the matches against Bayern. Leo did not play alone. He was decisive in many cases, he is an important player for us. He trains every day and is happy to play for PSG.

I don’t know anything about his future, it’s too early to predict what will happen.” – said Galtier.
