Jubilation in France As Top Argentine Star to Stay in Paris Saint-Germain for One More Season

• Lionel Messi will continue at PSG for at least another season as the club prepares to create a team around him, most likely under a new manager
• The Argentine superstar scored a superb screamer from outside the 18-yard-box on Saturday, April 23rd to hand PSG their 8th league title in 10 years
• Messi has had an underwhelming campaign for the Parisians this season as he has scored just 4 league goals in his first season

Lionel Messi will stay one more season at Paris Saint-Germain as the newly crowned French Champions are planning a massive shakedown of their squad.

The Argentine International has not lived up to the hype since he joined the Parisians on a free transfer from Barcelona last summer.

Messi has only managed just 4 league goals all season and was present as Real Madrid booted the French giants out of the UEFA Champions League in the round-of-16.

According to Sky Sports, PSG is preparing to rebuild this summer at the start of a new cycle, most likely under the guidance of a new first-team coach, in order to get the most out of Messi.

Kylian Mbappe and Neymar have formed a formidable partnership in attack for the Parisians but the 23-year-old could be leaving for Real Madrid after failing to agree to a new deal with his contract set to expire at the end of the season.

Pochettino set to be sacked as PSG coach

Meanwhile, while the future of Lionel Messi appears to be settled, the same cannot be said for manager Mauricio Pochettino.

According to The Times, Paris Saint-Germain are finalizing the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino and will consider Tottenham Hotspur’s Antonio Conte as a contender to replace him.

Pochettino led PSG to the French title on Saturday, but he will be fired due to his Champions League failure. Conte's interest in following him has been noted by the club, while Zinedine Zidane is considered PSG's preferred choice.
