| sport

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi revealed the possibility of signing Leo Messi and said there was no chance Neymar was coming back to Camp Nou. He also shut the door on a Kylian Mbappe exit.

In comments to L’Equipe, the PSG chief said he spoke to Joan Laporta about the Argentine.

“I told him Messi was at the end of his contract and all clubs have the right to speak with him,” said Al-Khelaifi.

“All the big players want to come to PSG and I say that to make things clear, not to respond about Messi.”

On Neymar, he added: “Barca always wanted to get Neymar back but did Neymar want it? No.”

 

On Mbappe, he said: “Mbappe will stay in Paris. We will never sell him and he will never leave for free. Mbappe has everything he needs in Paris. Where could he go? What club can compete today with PSG in ambition and project?”
