Angel Di Maria tells Lionel Messi to take PSG teammate's shirt number next season

Argentina midfielder Angel di Maria has told compatriot Lionel Messi to ask for the number 10 shirt at Paris Saint-Germain next season.

Messi took the number 30 when he joined PSG from Barcelona last summer. However, after a tough season in front of goal, the Ballon d'Or winner has been encouraged to make the switch.

Di Maria's exit after seven years in Paris will leave the number 11 shirt vacant. The former Real Madrid man, who scored the goal which won Messi his first Copa America title in 2021, has called on Neymar to take 11 and leave 10 free for a player who he has called the world's best.
