Lionel Messi received a chorus of boos from Paris Saint Germain fans on his first game back after an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia. Rumors of Messi leaving the club in the summer have intensified in recent weeks, and his unauthorised trip led to an apparent suspension by PSG. During the match against Ajaccio, Messi was booed every time he touched the ball by a section of PSG fans. Although PSG won the match 5-0, Messi produced a below-par performance.
PSG are now six points clear at the top of Ligue 1, but their nearest challengers, Lens, are taking points at an incredible rate, and third-place Marseille will probably win their match this weekend. PSG boss Christophe Galtier acknowledged that nothing is decided yet and that there are players in his squad who want to be champions of France. PSG will take on 16th-placed Auxerre in their next Ligue 1 match.
