PSG ban players over Lionel Messi

PSG have BANNED their players talking about Lionel Messi after Leandro Paredes let slip the club’s transfer plans.

The Barcelona great’s Nou Camp contract expires in the summer meaning he is set to become a free agent.

Paredes confirmed his club ARE pursuing his Argentine compatriot Messi just days after dumping him out of the Champions League.

But his comments did not go down well with the Ligue 1 champs – who have now implemented a clampdown on Messi chat.

Paredes told Le Journal Du Dimanche: “They have asked me not to talk about it anymore.

“People didn’t like my position on what I was saying. Some people saw it as disrespectful. This was not the case for me.

“It’s up to Messi to decide calmly at the end of the season what he wants to do with his future.”
