    20 Minutes

    ... we give you our tips so as not to miss anything about this arrival, or even to know before (almost) everyone.

To use a very Olympic expression, the beasts are released. Lionel Messi has barely been lost in nature since the announcement of his departure from FC Barcelona after twenty years at the club that all of Paris has embarked on a vast hunt. As we speak to you, collective hysteria is such that the Argentinian is more sought after than Jason Bourne and Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès combined. Some would be ready to escort him on line 9 of the Paris metro and drive him directly to Nasser Al-Khelaïfi's office to have him signed voluntarily or by force at Paris Saint-Germain.

The atmosphere smells of summer 2017, that of the arrival of Neymar from Barça, “se queda”, “se firma”, etc.

So let's try to take the right reflexes, starting by staying connected to all the electronic devices at our disposal so as not to miss a bit of the Messi telenovela in Paris - outside of sleep hours, eh.

You still have to know how to choose your sources.

But that is our job.

A little guide to the junkie Messix.

Flightradar, for spies

Remember, four years ago.

Clever little people had managed to find the flight of Dani Alves, who was about to reach Paris.

Their secret weapon?

Flightradar "whose purpose is to display real-time information on the flight of commercial or private aircraft using data transmitted by the ADS-B transponder fitted to the aircraft" to quote the online reference encyclopedia.

We learn, for example, that on Tuesday, no private flight has planned to leave Barcelona, ​​with a small margin of error all the same, because private jets have unpredictable flight plans compared to commercial flights.

Go to Le Bourget, for adventurers

So much so, as long as you have the time and unwavering faith, go directly to the area around Le Bourget airport - this is where all the players arrive, Sergio Ramos the last - where dozens of supporters await Messi .

Some started their sleep on Sunday evening, but the crowds were felt the most on Monday, with a climax in the early afternoon, before the less stubborn decided to give up and go grab a bite to eat. Rosny side 2. The base.

Go to the outskirts of the Park, for people in the field

Others chose to go around the Parc des Princes, where the crowd swelled quite a bit throughout the afternoon, pushing the authorities to install barriers and a security cordon.

Conversely, some have seen the signs of preparations for the arrival of the Argentine star in his new home.

Who is right ?

Unbearable suspense ...

Follow the right journalists, the choice of wisdom

The transfer window is a great game of lying poker in the middle of which there is a tiny source of truth. In 2017, her name was Marcelo Bechler. At the time journalist for

Esporte Interativo

, he was the horse on which it was necessary to bet to have the good information on the transfer of Neymar, of which he had announced without trembling the departure on July 18, well before the end of the transfer window. Because its source was concrete - a friend of the Ney. Not said that he is the providential man again this year, if only because Messi's future is now being played outside Barcelona, ​​where Bechler is affected. Instead, we put a small room on Fabrizio Romano, from Sky. You can fav.

Lionel Messi is currently not in Paris and he's not landed anywhere.

He's at his home with his family.

And then because this is where you laugh the most while waiting for the official announcement of the signing of Lionel Messi to PSG.

For now and according to the latest information from all over Europe, Messi is still in Barcelona waiting for his father, Jorge, to finish working on his contract with the Parisian leaders.
