The family photo that Messi shared in Paris and caused frenzy in social media

Paris Saint-Germain's perfect start in Ligue 1 leaves no doubt that they are the great candidates to retain the French crown once again and compete for the Champions League. After the 7-1 win over Lille at the weekend, Lionel Messi took advantage of the start of the week to enjoy the sunshine of the capital with a family outing and take a photo that he later posted on his social media.

Sitting at a table and under an umbrella Lionel, Antonela, Mateo, Thiago and Ciro posed for the camera. All dressed in white except for ‘Leo’ who wore a black t-shirt. Thousands of comments and ‘likes’ flooded the image of several teammates from the Argentina national team and PSG, among other celebrities.

One of the terms most used by users who saw the publication was to label it as the "royal family". In addition, many fans of both Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona remembered him as the best footballer in history, along with others who wish to see him lifting the World Cup to be held at the end of the year in Qatar.

In his recent performance against Lille, he scored the 773rd goal in his career (15 with PSG, 672 with Barcelona and 86 with the Argentina National Team) and thus surpassed the 772 official goals of Brazilian Romario. As a result, he leapt onto the podium of the three top scorers in history. Behind Josef Bican (805) and Cristiano Ronaldo (815).

Messi would decide on his future after the World Cup

It is worth remembering that ‘La Pulga’ has a contract with PSG until June 2023 and it recently became known that PSG is considering offering a renewal to the Argentinean. Messi's response would come after the World Cup, where he will decide the course of his professional career at the age of 35.
