After saying goodbye to PSG, what Ander Herrera said about Lionel Messi

The transfer market has come to an end. One of the most volatile European summers in recent times. Paris Saint-German has made several moves throughout the summer, including the sale of Paredes to Juventus and Ander Herrera returning to Athletic Bilbao. Which have not gone unnoticed by Leo Messi, who took the time to write a message to both on social media.

Unfortunately for Ander Herrera —and Messi— he did not fit in the future plans of PSG’s new coach, Christophe Galtier. Herrera struck a good relationship with Messi since his arrival to PSG, he was one of Messi’s closest friends in the team. Messi bid him farewell with a message on social media: "I loved meeting you, I thank you for how you received me from the first day and I wish you the best in your return to La Liga".

Messi lost his closest friends in PSG

Many blame Kylian Mbappé for the many changes in PSG over the summer. Some reports point to him as he holds power in PSG on and off the pitch, and rumors suggest that Kylian wanted less foreigners in the team. Messi was also forced to bid farewell to Argentina teammates Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes. However, Leo seems focused on his game with the World Cup just around the corner.
