When Paris Saint-Germain signed Lionel Messi in 2021, it looked like it would be the beginning of something special. With the Argentine star joining the likes of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in a star-stadded squad, the French club seemed to have everything to succeed.

But nothing went according to plan. Only two years later, both Messi and Neymar left PSG. The 7x Ballon d’Or winner left for MLS side Inter Miami as a free agent, while the Brazilian was sold to Saudi Arabian giants Al-Hilal.

Besides, neither of them seemed to leave the club on good terms. After getting off to a great start to life in the US, Messi made it clear he never felt this happy in France, while Neymar went even further by claiming both he and Leo went through “hell” in Paris.
