In the ongoing drama involving French giants PSG and captain of the Argentine National Soccer Team, Lionel Messi, former PSG superstar Angel Di Maria has stepped forward with a warning for the Parisians. This case has created a huge buzz in the soccer world with everyone sharing their opinions.

This saga that the soccer world is watching unfold started when Messi headed to Saudi Arabia on an unsanctioned and sponsored trip. This didn’t settle well with the French giants and they proceeded to suspend Messi for two weeks. Messi reportedly had his two weeks’ wages of $860K taken away, along with being unable to feature in two matches.

The future of Lionel Messi’s next team is still largely up in the air. After a recent trip to Saudi Arabia and subsequent suspension, it seems unlikely that he will stay with PSG. At this point, the most likely destinations are either returning to former club FC Barcelona or going to Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia to compete against long-time rival Cristiano Ronaldo.
