Lionel Messi puts PSG contract extension on hold as he set to listen to other offers

Romero stated during the live broadcast that Messi was not planning on signing a new deal with Paris and that the World Cup had caused him to reconsider.

Reportminds Blog understands that Lionel Messi's contract with PSG will expire at the end of the current season. 

Recall that the 35 years old joined the Ligue 1 gaint on a years deal as a free agent after he left Barcelona at the end of his contract expiration. 

Messi and Paris were on the verge of renewing his contract at the time of the World Cup. The press reported at the time that Messi wanted to take Paris to the Champions League.

Romero said in the live broadcast: "For now, Messi is closer to not renewing his contract with Paris. Winning the World Cup made him change his mind. But this does not mean that his next stop is to return to Barcelona."

But after winning the World Cup, Messi's situation became a little awkward and he faced a lot of jeers during the away game because the team he beat was France, which is where Paris is located. Romero claimed that "winning the World Cup altered his mind" and this may be one of the causes behind it.
