Leo Messi seen playing with Japanese kids, video goes viral
Ligue 1 club Paris Saint Germain has posted a video in which we can see, Argentine player Lionel Messi was seen enjoying himself in a game of football with kids in Japan. The former Barcelona player was seen passing the ball around and making assists to one of the kids in the process.
As of now, Messi and the PSG are in Japan for a pre-season tour following which the Ligue 1 season will kick off on August 6th. With the tour, it will be a great opportunity for the players and club to have an engagement with the global fans. Messi will also be looking to shake off the pre-season rust in an effort to be fully fit and give 100 per cent to the forthcoming season.
With the 2022/23 season, new boss Christophe Galtier will be taking up the charge. With his immense success with Lille, it will be surely seen that some positive vibes will definitely pour into the PSG club.
French star Hugo Ekitike will be making his first appearance in the PSG colours, although, with the likes of many amazing players and high-calibre power in the dressing room, it will be difficult for Ekitike to make a place in the starting eleven.
Moreover, PSG has also managed to keep hold of France international, Kylian Mbappe, who was on the verge of a transfer to Real Madrid.
