Messi is said to be leaving Paris Saint-Germain, and PSG fans even booed him during the match against Lyon.
He was the target of resentment after PSG received FFP sanctions and an £8.6 million fine last year; another £56.3 million could be at risk, based on the club’s continued compliance with the regulations.
The enormous Saudi contract on the table is worth more than twice as much as Ronaldo, who currently earns £173 million annually at Al-Nassr. The Portuguese forward relocated to the Middle East after his contract at Old Trafford was ripped up as a result of his shocking interview with Piers Morgan.
Return to FC Barcelona?

Yuste said, ‘Leo and his family know the affection I have for them. I participated in the negotiations which unfortunately did not lead to a certain result.

We’re in contact, of course, with them.’
