Lionel Messi has officially signed with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after his shocking exit from Barcelona. Now, fans get to see a first look of him in his new threads.
With the sudden turn of events, it certainly feels weird to see the Argentine forward in a different jersey far from the usual Blaugrana colors. However, the deal is done and the legendary football star is now with PSG.

According to an earlier report, Lionel Messi's contract with PSG is for two years with an option for a third season. It will pay him at least $41 million per campaign.
While it might take time to get used to seeing Messi in while and blue along with the PSG logo, there is reason to be excited about his new chapter in Ligue 1. After all, he'll be reuniting with his former Barcelona teammate Neymar in Paris and pair up with young superstar Kylian Mbappe to form a potent attacking unit.
Not to mention that PSG also made moves to sign the likes of Sergio Ramos, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Gini Wijnaldum to build a star-studded roster that should be able to dominate in both France's top flight and across Europe.
The competition is definitely exciting as the balance of power shifts again. Messi's time with Barcelona is over, but fans can take a look at it as the start of something unique to the football world.
