“This is unacceptable”

PSG sporting director Leonardo has considered the figures “completely false” in an angry rant this weekend.

Leonardo has reiterated that Messi’s PSG contract is just two years, not three and said the details of the contract are “really very far from the truth”.

“This is unacceptable. This is completely false. I wanted to tell you that. I think it’s a lack of respect and we didn’t like it. I don’t understand the timing. This is really very far from the truth, on the duration and the numbers”, he tolds.
