‘The Objective Is the Champions League’ – Lionel Messi Discusses His Move to Paris, Squad’s Mindset This Season

  As Paris Saint-Germain hits the holiday break, it marks the midway point of the first season for Lionel Messi in the French capital. After departing FC Barcelona this year to the club’s financial situation, the 34-year-old landed with Les Parisiens.

  In an interview with Ansa (via canal supporter), the Argentine forward opened up about his transition after years of living in Barcelona to Paris. Despite the change he and his family had to go through this summer, Messi states that his family is happy in their new environment.

  “Moving to Paris was a big change because we lived in the same place for many years and it was not easy to change, but the truth is that we are very well, in a spectacular city, in one of the best teams in the world, so we are very happy,” Messi said.
