FootballPSG Defender Marquinhos Slam Angry Club Supporters for Booing Lionel Messi
- Marquinhos has demanded that Paris Saint-Germain Ultras stop booing Lionel Messi
- Messi was booed by his own supporters during PSG’s Ligue 1 victory against Ajaccio
- The Argentine superstar is set to leave PSG at the end of the season when his contract expires
Paris Saint-Germain captain, Marquinhos has stood up against the club’s Ultras following their continuous protests against Lionel Messi in recent weeks.
PSG Ultras blame Messi for the club’s underwhelming season and have constantly booed the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner in recent matches since his return from suspension.
According to Goal, Marquinhos insists that Messi and, indeed, no PSG player deserves to be singled out for boos by the club's fans and has urged the supporters to stop such behaviour.
"I always respect protests when they are peaceful, at the times and places where it is necessary. Above all, I ask the supporters not to target one player or another. It must always be collective. A player doesn't walk on his own; he’s not going to do anything on his own."
Messi is set to leave PSG at the end of the season after refusing to extend his two-year deal with the Parisians upon his arrival from Barcelona in 2021.
