Paris Saint-Germain's signing of Lionel Messi last year will be heard in front of the General Court of the European Union following allegations of unfairness from a Barcelona-supporting lawyer.
Messi joined PSG on a two-year contract a year ago from Barcelona as a free agent. The sensational move played out after the Catalan giants were unable to register the Argentine superstar with a new contract due to strict Financial Fair Play compliance laws by La Liga.
The arrival of Messi at the Parc des Princes came in a busy summer, which also saw the signings of high-profile signings Sergio Ramos, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Nuno Mendes, Georginio Wijnaldum and Achraf Hakimi.
