Abidal hints at Messi departure
Posted Tuesday, February 24, 2015 by Marca.com
Eric Abidal, who is close friends with Leo Messi, has got the rumour mill turning by hinting that the Argentine may consider leaving Barca in the summer.
"He's won everything at Barcelona and so he might be interested in the challenge of winning trophies at another club", the recently retired Frenchman told Telefoot.
The former defender didn't leave it at that, either, going on to suggest Paris Saint-Germain as a possible destination for Messi: "PSG have put together a good squad with determination and many objectives to achieve. It's a club that might appeal to Leo".
Abidal's comments will fan the flames of speculation surrounding Messi's future and a potential move to PSG, who have been hotly linked with the star in recent seasons.
The ex-Monaco, Lille, Lyon, Barca and Olympiacos man also denied that Messi interferes with the running of things at the Camp Nou: "I've never seen Leo ask for anything. Not even regarding the team selection".
