Paris St-Germain suspended Lionel Messi for two weeks due to his trip to Saudi Arabia

Posted : 03 May 2023

Lionel Messi, the captain of Argentina, has been given a two-week suspension by Paris Saint-Germain for traveling to Saudi Arabia this week without the club's consent.

Following the French club's Sunday home loss to Lorient, in which Messi played the full 90 minutes, the trip was made.
During his ban, Messi won't practice or play for PSG.

It is thought that the 35-year-old requested authorization to travel in order to do business but was denied.

Messi, who has also received a punishment from the club, represents Saudi Arabia as a tourist ambassador.

This summer marks the end of the World Cup winner's two-year deal with PSG.
