Lionel Messi and Paris Saint-Germain are "talking a lot," according to head coach Christophe Galtier, about a possible contract extension.
After leaving Barcelona in the summer of 2021, Messi signed a two-year contract, which he is about to reach the final few months of.
In his 65 games for PSG, Messi has scored 29 goals and contributed 32 assists, helping the club win a League title and the French Super Cup.
The MLS team Inter Miami is interested in signing the Argentine international, who has been linked with a return to the Catalan giants.
According to a recent source, Messi is also expected to accept Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia's offer of a £193 million contract.
Messi would join Cristiano Ronaldo, who now represents Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, if he transferred to Al-Hilal.
Messi is considering staying in the French city despite receiving offers from all over the world.
The World Cup winner would be willing to continue with PSG if he were given guarantees that the team could compete at the highest level, according to journalist Guillem Balague.
Following PSG's elimination from the Champions League by Bayern Munich earlier this month, Messi appears to be seeking assurances that the Parisians have a strategy in place to compete seriously for Europe's top honor.
Galtier was asked about Messi's future with the team prior to Sunday's home league matchup with Rennes.
Galtier stated, "It's too early to predict his future. He talks a lot, and so do the board and the president. I've already indicated that everyone would benefit from his stay.
Although he has received a lot of criticism since Bayern Munich, he has been pivotal in several games this season, according to me.
Galtier's personal future has been under scrutiny after PSG was eliminated from the Champions League as Luis Enrique and Zinedine Zidane have been mentioned in connection with the club's managerial opening.
Galtier, who won the league championship with Lille in the 2020–21 season, is getting close to winning his first Ligue 1 championship as PSG's manager.
Before to the weekend's round of games, the Parisians presently own a 10-point lead over their nearest opponent, Marseille.
