Lionel Messi has broken his silence over a recent controversy that has seen him suspended by PSG, with uncertainty surrounding his future at the club. The 35-year-old took an unsanctioned trip to Saudi Arabia on a day in which the rest of the squad were in training following the defeat to Lorient.
Messi's trip comes as he takes up the role of a tourism ambassador for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with the announcement made last May. The forward signed a £25million-a-year deal to promote the country, with reports claiming that an offer has been made to play in the domestic league next season once his current contract ends.
With his time at PSG seemingly coming towards a conclusion, it wouldn't be out of the question for him to make a move there. Cristiano Ronaldo did similar upon leaving Manchester United, having joined Al-Nassr, though he hasn't quite had the impact expected so far.
