Lionel Messi accused of showing PSG no respect
In an interview with ESPN, Messi complained that PSG hadn't done enough to celebrate his World Cup win in Qatar.
“I was the only player of the [squad] that didn’t get a [club] recognition.
)
“It was understandable... because of us [Argentina], they didn’t retain the World Cup."
In light of those comments, president Nasser Al-Khelaifi accused Messi of not showing PSG enough respect, telling RMC Sport this week:
"We talk when we are there, not when we are gone. I have great respect for him [Messi] but if someone wants to talk badly about Paris Saint-Germain after [his departure], it’s not good.
“That's not respect. He's not a bad guy, but I don't like that. It's not just for him, but for everyone.”
