Lionel Messi is now following just four football clubs on Instagram and his former club – PSG is not one of these teams.
Messi, 36, exited Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent and has unfollowed the French side on Instagram prior to his official announcement as an Inter Miami player.
The World Cup winner joined PSG last summer after leaving Barcelona but endured a very disappointing ampaign with the French giants.
The former Barcelona star failed to help them win a Champions League trophy and was booed by fans on several occasions.
Lionel Messi, however, refused to renew his contract with PSG and decided to join David Beckham’s MLS franchise, Inter Miami after turning down a lucrative offer from Al-Hilal.
This move by Messi even made PSG lose about 800,000 followers on their official Instagram account.
The Argentine is set to be unveiled as their marquee signing on Sunday, July 16 at a special event at the club’s DRV PNK Stadium.

Well, before his official presentation, Lionel Messi took to his Instagram to show his lack of affection for the Ligue 1 Champions.

Lionel Messi only follows four clubs: Barcelona, a club that gave him the chance to build a successful career; Chelsea and Manchester City, two clubs he admires and has been linked with in the past; and Newell’s Old Boy, his boyhood club in Argentina.
One cannot blame Messi for showing lack of affection for PSG as he was unfairly blamed for the club’s failure to win the Champions League.
