It's still not final, but Lionel Messi will almost certainly not continue at Paris Saint-Germain next season.
As you know, the Argentinian is finishing his two-year contract with the club, which does not seem to intend to extend his contract, and today (Tuesday) on ESPN they are announcing that the French champions demanded a 25 percent cut in his salary from the Argentinian as a condition for extending his contract, when his current contract reaches an annual amount of 40 million euros .
Where will he play next season?

ESPN also reports that Messi and his father Jorge wanted to sign a new contract with the club before the World Cup, but the situation has changed since then.
After leading Argentina to a third World Cup win and displaying tremendous ability, Messi was unable to reproduce this ability in his team, which was shamefully eliminated by Bayern Munich in the Champions League and recently lost heavily in the French league as well, where some Paris fans also booed him.
So what will be Messi's next stop?
All signs suggest that Barcelona's all-time great will return home in the summer, but this deal will be very complicated financially and the player's representatives are reportedly awaiting an offer from Inter Miami of the MLS.
According to these reports, Messi is interested in playing in the USA before his career ends and he prefers this option over the Saudi option.
