Paris Saint-Germain suspends Messi and Ramos' contract talks

According to foreign media reports, Paris Saint-Germain has suspended Messi and Ramos' contract renewal negotiations due to concerns about violating the Financial Fair Play policy.


Paris Saint-Germain have already been fined 10 million euros for breaching Financial Fair Play policy for the 2020-21 season, with a further 45 million euros pending and further penalties could be in the offing.


In recent years, Paris Saint-Germain's losses have also set a new record, with a loss of 370 million euros in the latest accounts. However, Messi and Ramos are Paris Saint-Germain's high-paid players, and their contracts will expire in the summer of 2023. Paris Saint-Germain must consider financial issues to make a decision.


It is said that Paris Saint-Germain fears being sanctioned and may be fined not to register any new players for next season's European competitions, reducing the registered squad for European competitions from 25 to 23. In serious cases, they may be expelled from the European arena.


Messi was the highest paid player before Mbappe signed a new contract with Paris Saint-Germain. Messi received an annual salary of 30 million euros in the first year of Paris Saint-Germain, which has increased to 40 million euros this year. Therefore, many people speculate that if new players are to be introduced, the club will reduce the player's salary, but Messi may be the first object of their salary reduction.

The 36-year-old Ramos ' contract with Paris Saint-Germain will also expire this summer. Although Ramos performed well in this game, Paris Saint-Germain seems to have taken a fancy to Inter Milan's Milan Skrinia Paul Torres of Villarreal. These two are strong enough to replace Ramos. If new players are really signed, Paris Saint-Germain may renew Ramos' salary or be transferred.
