You lack respect – PSG chief slams Messi

Paris Saint-Germain chairman, Nasser Al-Khelaifi has accused Lionel Messi of lacking “respect” for the Ligue 1 club following his departure in June 2023.

Messi admitted last September that he resents that PSG did not honour him after his 2022 World Cup heroics.

“He’s not a bad guy but I don’t like it.

“I’ll say, not just for him but for everyone, we talk when we’re there, not when we’re gone. That’s not our style…

“I have great respect for him [Messi] but if someone wants to speak badly about Paris Saint-Germain afterwards, that’s not good. That’s not respect,” Al-Khelaifi told RMC Sport.

Messi scored a brace in the final against France in Qatar.

He also converted a penalty in the shootout as Argentina won 4-2 on penalties.
