🗣'I have a friendly relationship with Messi and we are talking.' Lionel Messi is not having the best of times at PSG and has been in contact with a manager of one Europe's true giants 👀 Could this be the start of operation exit? 👋
Close friend Xavi told media he's been in contact with the five-time Ballon d'Or winner since Wednesday's defeat."I have a friendly relationship with Messi and we are talking," the Spaniard explained ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash with Osasuna."Yes, I sent him a message to encourage him after the game.
"It was a duel that changed in 20 or 25 minutes in which Madrid had faith and desire and turned the scoreboard in a match that was very difficult."Xavi played alongside Messi at the Camp Nou and they won four Champions League titles together. It's not Messi's first heartbreak in the Champions League, after suffering humiliating exits with Barcelona at the hands of Roma, Liverpool and Bayern Munich.The Champions League is like that," Xavi continued."When you lower the intensity a bit, the rival ends up running over you."I think that's what happened in that game and that's why Madrid was able to qualify. A bad moment condemns you to the Champions League.
PSG fans were furious with the way their side lost their heads and that anger carried over to Sunday's clash with bottom of Ligue 1 Bordeaux.
