Does Lionel Messi transcend the PSG-OM rivalry in the eyes of Jorge Sampaoli?

The Argentinian, who had his illustrious compatriot under his command in the national team in 2017-2018, at a time when Benjamin Pavard was cleaning cobwebs, reacted to the very likely arrival of the six-fold Golden Ball at Paris Saint -Germain.

And a priori, that doesn't bother him too much.

"Even if he is about to go to a club other than OM, it would be great for L1, he would be the best player in the world in our Championship, it would do L1 a lot of good, really," said Sampaoli at a post Montpellier-OM press conference.

All eyes from around the world would be on the Championship.

If Leo comes, we wish him to be happy, to enjoy this different championship.

A little more and he used the term "farmers league".

The Marseille coach also sees the arrival of Messi as "an additional motivation".

We understand it.

We too were a bit bored with only Mbappé and Neymar.

Something was missing to address all of this.
