French football is in turmoil following the suspension of Leo Messi for two weeks and the affair of the "mysterious flight" to Saudi Arabia.
But is it possible that Messi's flight to Saudi Arabia after the loss to Lorraine was just an excuse for PSG to suspend its Argentinian star?
Senior Argentinian journalist Gaston Adol claims that this is a cover story by the leaders of Paris, who knew in advance about Messi's flight.
According to the report, Paris leaked that it was planning to suspend Messi, when the player himself has not yet received any notification of this.
The real reason for this is that there was a lengthy negotiation between the parties to extend the contract, but Messi and his representatives refused the offer that was made to them, so Paris is trying to deflect the fire against him and make him look bad, thus justifying his expected departure this summer.

In Argentina they are trying to protect their big star and the new world champion and in "Ola" it is written that "everyone is talking about his suspension because he is the best player in the world".
Messi and his entourage maintain wireless silence in this case, when his representatives are already working on the next chapter in his legendary career and it is not certain that this chapter will be in Barcelona.
According to the nightly report in France, Al Hilal and Inter Miami from the MLS are currently the two teams with the highest chances of signing Messi, more than Barcelona, which is mired in financial problems.
"Until a few weeks ago, Messi did not even consider leaving Europe, but since then the picture has changed. There is a very high chance that he will choose between Miami and Saudi Arabia," they wrote in "L'Aquip".
