Fresh off a legendary performance at the 2022 World Cup, Lionel Messi has reportedly agreed to a contract extension with PSG, according to Le Parisien.
The 35-year-old’s current deal with PSG is set to expire this summer, which led to reports over the last few months suggesting that he was close to sealing a move to Inter Miami. The reports claimed the lucrative summer switch to MLS would have made him the highest-paid player in the league’s history, while potentially including an ownership stake in the MLS club run by David Beckham.
But now Messi is reportedly set to stay in the French capital for at least another season as he looks to add another Champions League title to his newly claimed World Cup, which has made him the favorite to win a record eighth Ballon d’Or. Le Parisien claims he’ll sign with PSG through the 2023-24 season.
