Fanatic fans of French club Paris Saint-Germain pursued former team star Lionel Messi, who left the French capital and moved to Inter Miami a few weeks ago.
And press reports revealed that the French club’s ultras traveled specifically to Miami, and put up a banner that read, “Messi: We finally got rid of the walrus,” near the new team stadium of the Argentine legend.

During the two seasons that Messi spent in Paris, his relationship with the team’s supporters was tense, unlike when he was in Barcelona, Spain, where he was a fan of the Catalan team.
Messi scored 32 goals and made 35 for Paris Saint-Germain during 75 matches with the team, to contribute to winning the French League twice.
But it seems that the team’s failure to go far in the Champions League was the reason behind the strained relationship between Messi and the fans of the capital’s team.
As for Inter Miami, Messi scored 11 goals in 9 matches since moving to the American club.
He played a starring role in crowning the team with the Mexican American League Cup, and reaching the final of the US Open Cup.
And on Saturday, he entered the reserve, about an hour after his team’s match against New York Red Bull, and scored a goal to emerge victorious 2-0, in the first victory for his team in the American League since mid-May.
