The forced change of life Messi had to deal with last year had consequences on the pitch. Going to PSG was not easy at first. His four league goals sum up the difficulties he experienced on his journey, although his performance gradually improved. The reaction, however, did not come in time for the Argentine to be considered candidates for the player of the year award in France.
Mbappe is the great favorite to take the award, which they also choose Ben Yedderfrom Monaco, Payetfrom Olympique de Marseille, packagesfrom Olympique de Lyon and Terrierfrom Rennes. The PSG footballer has scored 35 goals this season, numbers that make him a great reference for the Paris side. Despite not announcing what he will do from June, he has earned everyone’s respect for the regularity and professionalism he has played.
Not being among the best is an unprecedented situation for Messi, something that hasn’t happened since 2009. The man from Rosario has spent thirteen seasons uninterrupted on that list made by the League, thanks to the ten leagues he has won with Barça. He won the award for best striker eleven times and he just surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo (2014) at Benzema (2020) twice. Messi he wants to regain his status next year.
