For the second day in a row, Paris Saint-Germain fans flocked to Le Bourget Airport, north of Paris.
There they believe that Lionel Messi will advance on Parisian soil and then formalize his relationship with Paris Saint-Germain, the club most closely associated with the Argentine star since Barcelona’s departure was confirmed. There are also several news teams in place, hoping to capture the player’s arrival, whatever (and if) it happens.

This Sunday, at a press conference, Messi assumed PSG was a possibility, but added that he still had nothing closed with any club.
Sure enough, though, there were many fans who flocked to the airport and also outside Parque dos Príncipes, two places where they maintain a strong presence on Monday.
