Just before Messi plays vs Croatia, the information that is revealed about Leo's friend

Before the start of the season in Europe, Leandro Paredes was notified that he would not enter into the plans of Christophe Galtier, current PSG coach. The Argentine team had to abandon the discipline of the Parisian team and ended up at Juventus in Italy. Now, the reason why the French club did not take him into account for the 2022-2023 campaign is revealed.

L'Équipe, one of the most important sports newspapers in France, revealed the reason that led to the departure of Leandro Paredes from PSG. Despite being a key player in the midfield with Marco Verratti, Galtier was not going to take him into account and, in the middle of the World Cup year, he decided to accept the proposal of the 'Vecchia Signora', where he did not have as much prominence due to injuries.

The newspaper revealed that Paredes was known in the PSG dressing room as Lionel Messi's "bodyguard". Even the Argentine national team had several problems with his teammates, due to the treatment received by the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) in each training session. The little understanding with the squad, due to the attachment with Leo, made Lea say goodbye to PSG.

The departure of the Argentines benefited Messi in the Parisian squad:

Being surrounded by Ángel Di María and Leandro Paredes made Lionel Messi not open up to the rest of his teammates in his first season at PSG. However, without the presence of both in the squad, the '10' from the Albiceleste created new ties of friendship, his voice is more heard internally and his performance prior to the World Cup was superlative (12 goals and 14 assists among all the competencies).
