Lionel Messi falls out with his teammate
After parting ways with Barcelona at the beginning of the season, Messi has had a slow start to his PSG career. Yet, he has picked up his game to score memorable goals in the UEFA Champions League. But, the recent argument with his fellow Argentinian may be a cause of concern for the PSG backroom staff.
The reason claimed was that Icardi was not happy with Messi’s stance on his involvement with the national team. Notably, Icardi has not featured for Argentina for the past three years and he thinks the main reason for that is his relationship with Messi.
