Lionel Messi<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Disgruntled Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) fans whistled after hearing Lionel Messi\u2019s name announced in the starting lineup ahead of the club\u2019s 1-0 home defeat to Lyon on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Argentina captain was booed by PSG supporters during their previous game, a 2-0 home loss to Rennes on March 19.<\/p>\n

PSG boss Chrisophe Galtier said he cannot understand why a section of the club\u2019s fans are booing Messi.<\/p>\n

\u201cLeo Messi tried very hard,\u201d Galtier said after Sunday\u2019s game. \u201cIt is not just about Messi and Kylian Mbappe. There were some technical mistakes in his [Messi\u2019s] link-up play, but I think the whistles are hard to listen to because Leo Messi gives so much. He has got goals and assists in 2023, but it is also down to his teammates in terms of doing more to create more danger in the opposition penalty box.\u201d<\/p>\n

Messi, who last week surpassed 100 international goals with Argentina, has not found the back of the net for PSG in the last four games, including the 2-0 defeat at Bayern Munich which saw his side exit the Champions League in the round-of-16.<\/p>\n

Asked if he had considered dropping Messi from the starting lineup, Galtier said: \u201cWhen it is a difficult period and you need to turn a situation around and score goals, Leo Messi is a decisive player who is capable of coming up with a moment of magic that can be decisive for scoring goals. He has scored goals in 2023, he has got assists. I have never thought about taking him off or not playing him. He is an important player in our attacking line-up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Messi went into Sunday\u2019s game with increasing speculation regarding his potential return to Barcelona.<\/p>\n

Barca forward Robert Lewandowski has told ESPN he hopes Messi joins him at Spotify Camp Nou next season.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat would be great if he\u2019s coming,\u201d the Poland striker said on Saturday. \u201cI know that there are a lot of rumours now, but in the end we have to be patient and we [will] see what\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, Barcelona is the place for Lionel Messi, and I hope that something happens. But now we have to be focused on this season and what we can achieve this season with the team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Messi is in his second campaign at PSG and has contributed 13 goals and 13 assists, with 24 league appearances. He is under contract with PSG until the end of the season<\/p>\n
