The latest Lionel Messi transfer story proven to be false

SPORT have learned that Jorge Messi has not kept any kind of contact with PSG sporting director Patrick Kluivert

FC Barcelona forward Leo Messi has not had any contact with directors of Paris Saint-Germain. Sources close to the Argentine player have denied the information from French source RTL who claimed that Messi’s father, Jorge, had met with former Barcelona player and current PSG sporting director Patrick Kluivert.

SPORT have learned that Jorge Messi has not kept any kind of contact with the Dutchman, and does not even know him personally. The father of the Blaugrana crack is currently in Argnetine and it is forecast that he will visit Barcelona this week to watch the Clasico at Camp Nou. On his agenda is meeting Barcelona’s chiefs to discuss Messi’s contract renewal at the club.

The supposed meeting between Kluivert and Jorge Messi is the latest rumour that is circulating with regards to the Argentine No 10. RTL had claimed that PSG would intensify contact in the coming weeks to try to convince Messi to leave when his deal with Barcelona ends in June 2018. The reality is rather different.
