After winning the World Cup with Argentina, Lionel Messi is very close to signing a new contract with PSG.
The Argentinian star arrived at the Parc des Princes in the summer of 2021 and the club has experienced significant financial growth since then.
10 new sponsors and revenues of more than 700 million euros – figures obtained after the arrival of Lionel Messi at Paris Saint-Germain
Although there have been many rumors about Lionel Messi’s departure to Major League Soccer, finally the Argentine and PSG club are on the verge of reaching an agreement on the extension of the deal, which is due to take place this summer.
Paris Saint-Germain officials are pushing hard to convince Lionel Messi to stay, given the changes that have taken place at the club since his arrival in France.
According to daily newspaper MARCA, the Lionel Messi effect was and is a real success for the French champions, who have attracted a total of ten new sponsors: Dior, Gorillas, Crypto.com, PlayBetR, GOAT, Snart Good Thins, Volt, Big Cola, Sport Voda and Autohero .
What’s more, around €700 million has flowed into the club’s accounts at the Parc des Princes since the Argentine signed for Paris Saint-Germain.
Demand and sales of the shirts also implicitly increased, with over 50% of the over one million shirts sold by PSG emblazoned with Lionel Messi’s name and number.
PSG registered a 40% increase compared to last season in merchandising revenue (rumored to be around €60 million), most of which comes from shirt sales.

Only from the contract with Nike, the Parisians receive 75 million euros annually, the agreement is valid until 2032.
Everyone at MARCA is saying that PSG are preparing an incredible contract for Lionel Messi, who currently earns around €40 million per season.
If from an economic point of view the club succeeded with the arrival of Messi, then from the point of view of trophies, the Parisians won only one title and one Super Cup, very little if we talk about the cost of the party and part of the salary.
In 53 matches for Paris Saint-Germain, the new world champion scored 23 goals and provided 29 assists.
