Lionel Messi will play his final game for Paris Saint-Germain when they host Clermont Foot on Saturday.
Messi, 35, is set to leave PSG this summer after two years at the Parc des Princes. Christophe Galtier confirmed in his pre-match press conference that Messi will not be at the club next season. He said: "I had a privilege of coaching the best player in the history of football. It will be Leo's last match at the Parc des Princes against Clermont."
Whilst at PSG, Messi has helped them to two Ligue 1 titles, as well as the French Super Cup. Ahead of this weekend's clash with Clermont, his record sits at 32 goals and 35 assists in 75 appearances in all competitions. Barcelona and Al-Hilal are amongst the clubs interested in his signature.
However, it isn't just Messi that will play his last match for PSG. Sergio Ramos' departure was confirmed on Friday following a two-year stint with the French side. The Spaniard joined PSG from Real Madrid in 2021 but struggled for game time under Mauricio Pochettino in his first season, making just 13 appearances in all competitions.
However, Christophe Galtier chose to re-introduce Ramos into the starting XI at the start of this term alongside Marquinhos, and it is a partnership that has worked. After over 50 matches and five goals, Ramos will leave PSG after their final Ligue 1 game of the season against Clermont.

Team news
Galtier will be without a number of key players for the visit of Clermont. Neymar, who has been heavily linked with a move to Newcastle and Manchester United, has an ankle problem, while Marquinhos is nursing a groin injury.
Nuno Mendes, Nordi Mukiele and Hugo Ekitike all have hamstring strains, and Presnel Kimpembe is continuing his recovery from an Achilles injury. Meanwhile, Sergio Rico is currently still in hospital in a serious but stable condition after colliding with a horse last Sunday morning.
Galtier said: "This week, there were no talks about next season. You will understand very well in relation to Sergio Rico that all minds are turned toward his situation and his health. There is a time for everything.
"We will finish this week, and complete the league campaign. In the days that follow, there will automatically be questions about the next season. There will be questions about my future. But it's the same everywhere for everyone. Talk to me about Igor Tudor, nobody imagined that he was going to leave... It will be time to discuss with my management to find out what the guidelines will be for next season."
