Lai hopes to renew his contract with Messi until June 2024, and the Argentine superstar will continue to fight at the Parc des Princes for the next two years. Meanwhile, Paris has no interest in Ronaldo.
Messi’s first season in Paris was a far cry from Barcelona’s, scoring 11 goals and providing 15 assists in 34 games in all competitions. These figures are not bad, but by Messi’s standards, they are not very impressive. In some games, he heard boos. The introduction of Messi in Paris is to hope that he will lead the team to make a qualitative leap in the Champions League, but this has not been achieved. In the Champions League 1/8 final against Real Madrid, Messi missed the penalty and indirectly caused Paris to be eliminated.
Messi’s commercial value is almost unmatched by players. In the one season Messi joined, Paris set a club record in terms of revenue. At the same time, 10 new sponsors were added, and sponsorship revenue increased by 13%. In addition, Paris sold more than 1 million jerseys for the first time in a single season, of which Messi’s No. 30 jersey accounted for 60%.
Messi’s contract expires in one year, and it was previously reported that he may not renew his contract. However, Paris are very confident that they can keep Messi, just as they successfully persuaded Mbappe to stay in the team. Paris are willing to further increase Messi’s salary package, which they believe can impress the Argentine superstar.
According to ESPN, Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent Mendes recommended his agent to Paris, but the Ligue 1 giants rejected the possibility. Cristiano Ronaldo’s idea of leaving Manchester United is very clear. He has one year left on his contract and hopes to switch to a team capable of competing for the Champions League trophy. Cristiano Ronaldo has not yet returned to the team. His approach is essentially a “strike”, hoping to force Manchester United to let him leave. Cristiano Ronaldo is very important to the team. Manchester United has maintained restraint and did not intend to impose penalties. They still hope to persuade the Portuguese superstar to stay in the team.
Previously, Cristiano Ronaldo was linked with Bayern and Chelsea, but considering the age and high salary of the Portuguese superstar, neither of them considered him an ideal signing object. Chelsea were rumored to have made a formal offer of 17 million euros, but Tuchel rejected it.
