PSG tonight (Saturday) officially unveiled the new acquisition Leo Messi in front of 47,000,000 spectators at the Parc de France.
Before the opening whistle against Strasbourg in the second round of the league and without the star in the squad, the French runner-up arranged for her fans the big show of the evening, even before the game.
"It was a special week for me," Messi said.
"I want to thank everyone for the welcome since I arrived in Paris. It was really amazing. I am very happy to be here, I hope we all have fun together and have a great year."
Immediately after the official show, PSG went up to the game against Strasbourg in hopes of achieving their second win of the season and staying perfect.
Killian Ambape and Mauro Icardi went up in 11th, as did Georginio Vinaldom and Ashraf Hakimi - the new acquisition players.
What a welcome for Leo #Messi.
Unreal.
