After conceding a goal in the 15th minute, PSG leveled the score with the help of Kylian Mbappe’s goal.

Amidst all this, Lionel Messi’s future at PSG remains uncertain. His contract will expire this summer and PSG are not going to force him to renew the contract. The 35-year-old has been linked to Saudi Club, Al Hilal, who reportedly offered him a contract of around $440 million per year. Barcelona are also keen on bringing Messi back to Camp Nou, but they won’t be able to offer him even 50% of what Al Hilal is due to financial issues.
