Lionel Messi took a new road in life and every Spanish football fan will have found it strange and upsetting in many ways. The same feelings emerged in footballers as well, while some are excited to have Messi at PSG. His Argentine national team’s teammate Angel Di Maria has admitted that he always wanted Messi at PSG, according to our football today reports.
Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Angel di Maria is a close friend of Messi. It’s not known how Pochettino will fit him into his attack, but he’s an excellent alternative at the very least. As reported by Roger Nemer, Di Maria said about Messi’s arrival, “I’m more than happy. Everything I dreamed about happened in one month; winning the Copa America and being able to play with Leo in the same team. It’s what I’ve always wanted.”
Former Barcelona player’s move to Paris also saw a rivalry turning into friendship in football news. Sergio Ramos greeted Lionel Messi in the gym as he arrived for his first day of training at Paris Saint-Germain. The two La Liga rivals hugged each other. After previously captaining Barcelona and Real Madrid, both Messi and Ramos joined PSG on free football transfer respectively.
They were arch-rivals, embodying the values of each club in opposing ways during their time at Camp Nou and the Santiago Bernabeu. Messi embodied the purity of beautiful football, while Ramos embodied the sanctity of victory. However that now that they are together, for the rest of the European football it is a terrifying sight.
Ramos is expected to form an unbreakable defensive partnership with Marquinhos, or with Presnel Kimpembe if the Brazilian is used as a midfielder. Messi will line up alongside Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, which he described as “crazy.”
