CNN —Lionel Messi struggled to adapt to a new environment at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after moving to the French club in 2021, the Argentine forward said in an interview with beIN Sports aired this week. Messi won two league titles during his time at PSG, scoring 21 goals and recording 20 assists in all competitions over the past season. “The truth is, it was a very difficult adaptation, much more than I expected,” Messi told beIN about his move to PSG two years ago. Paris Saint-Germain Football/Getty ImagesEarlier this month, Messi announced that he would be moving to MLS club Inter Miami and is reportedly set to make his debut in the United States in July. “I think that from the beginning, it was something very nice, like the reception, which I said many times,” Messi added.

"My stay in Paris started with a very difficult adaptation, much more than I expected, even though I had people I knew in the dressing room. "And then people started to treat me differently, a part of the Paris fans started to treat me differently." "There was a rift with a big part of the Paris fans, it was not my intention, far from it, it happened like that.

Inter Miami are co-owned by former England captain David Beckham, who was one of the first major European stars to move to the United States to play in the MLS, winning the MLS Cup twice with Los Angeles Galaxy. PSG EXITOnce the crown jewel of European football, Messi has effectively been let go by two super clubs in two years -- for free. His move away from PSG, however, is of his own volition as he felt the French club lacked a project for the future while fan unrest only hastened his exit.

Lionel Messi has pulled off his latest stunning feat: He is headed to Major League Soccer, and joining Inter Miami. It took months of negotiations with MLS, the Inter Miami ownership, Adidas and even Apple getting involved in a creative pitch to bring Messi to Miami's pitch. Inter Miami needed six years from inception to playing its first match, and its first four seasons have been less than stellar. Messi met with Inter Miami co-owner Beckham this spring, and that was shared publicly almost to ensure that everyone knew the sides were still talking.
