Posted on December 14, 2021 at 5.30 p.m. by Dan Marciano While some Catalan media evoked a discomfort in Paris, Lionel Messi wanted to clarify things about his arrival at PSG and unveiled his goals with his new club. The Unimaginable happened last August. Attached to FC Barcelona and present in Catalonia since his adolescence, Lionel Messi ended up leaving his team at heart. Unable to find an agreement with his leaders and in particular with President Joan Laporta , the Argentine striker bade farewell to the Blaugrana formation during a moving press conference at Camp Nou . After drying his tears, Lionel Messi looked for a new team, but it didn't take long to make up his mind. La Pulga quickly came to an understanding with the leaders of PSG to sign a two-year contract, plus an optional year, possibly until 2024. Arrived with great fanfare in the capital, Lionel Messi is however struggling to acclimatize to his new life. After living for a long time in Barcelona , the 34-year-old must learn to live in a new country, to evolve with new teammates, but also to get used to the weather. A friend of the Argentinian for many years, Luis Suarez said in particular that Lionel Messi had trouble with the weather: “We're talking about the games, about the family. He told me he was in a lot of pain playing in the cold and especially in the snow. You have to get used to the cold there. Some Catalan media have rushed into the breach and indicated that the player did not like Paris. But this Tuesday, the Albicelestial international put the record straight. Present in Dubai especially for the Universal Exhibition, Lionel Messi was questioned about his arrival at PSG . Although he made no secret that the change was drastic, the player said he was happy in Paris. “Moving to Paris was a big change, because we lived in the same place for many years and it was not easy to change, but the truth is that we are very well, in a spectacular city, in one of the best teams in the world, so we are very happy, ”said the forward in remarks reported by the Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla . But questions are starting to appear on Lionel Messi , less effective than during his time at FC Barcelona , and this despite the presence of Neymar or by Kylian Mbappé in the offensive sector. Lionel Messi , for example, has not escaped criticism after the defeat of PSG against < strong> Manchester City on November 24 (2-1) because of his lack of involvement during the defensive phases. But the Rosario native intends to make the necessary efforts to allow his new team to achieve their goals, especially in the Champions League. “The objective this year for Paris Saint-Germain is to try to achieve everything that we play for and obviously the objective is the Champions League, which we are trying to achieve. I think that's everyone's goal, in a special competition where all the great teams want to win, and we will try to achieve that too ”said Lionel Messi, who will have the opportunity to make an impression against a club he knows well, Real Madrid.
