Leo Messi, in an interview with BeIN Sports, reviewed his two-season spell at Paris Saint-Germain having just signed for Inter Miami. Despite winning Ligue 1 in both seasons, the Argentine star has been unable to win the Champions League, the French club’s great pending issue.
“Everything went well. Every time I liked this city more, there was a new coach, a new style of play”, said Messi, But in his opinion, everything changed after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a competition that he won for the first time in his career as the command of the Argentina team.
“It’s not a reason but the World Cup played a lot”, acknowledges Messi. “Some came back later than others, some were injured, like Neymar. He played an important role in our season, he changed our plans. I think, in general, the level of the Championship or the Champions League it affected the World Cup. Success or not, we all come back changed, for different reasons.”
After examining his relationship with PSG fans, Messi defined his success in Qatar 2022: “I achieved the most important goal for me, win the World Cup. I never thought about individual rewards, I always put the collective before everything else, and being able to achieve this goal ends an extraordinary career.”
