PSG said on Thursday that the club's coach, Christophe Galtier, "misspoke" when he confirmed that this Saturday's match would be the last game of Leo Messi at the Parc des Princes.
According to the Parisian club, Galtier's words refer to the last game "this season," PSG sources confirmed to 'EFE'.
PSG's clarification, however, does not necessarily confirm Messi will stay. He is out of contract on June 30 in the French capital, although he has an extra season as an option.
A few hours earlier, consulted by the media on the Argentinian striker's situation at a press conference, Galtier had responded without leaving any room for doubt that Saturday's match against Clermont, in what will be the last matchday of the 2022-2023 French League, will be the star's last at the PSG stadium.
"I have had the privilege of managing the best player in the history of soccer," the coach stated. Messi arrived in August 2021 at PSG on a contract of 2 seasons plus a third available.
After the World Cup in Qatar, it seemed that the player and the club would activate that extra year, but in recent weeks they seemed to be growing apart.
The 35-year-old player, 7 times Ballon d'Or winner and World Cup winner with Argentina in 2022, has received several offers, including a multi-million dollar one from Saudi Arabia, the biggest contract in the history of soccer.
But there are other options, such as returning to Barcelona or signing for Inter Miami.
