Corruption and bribery with UEFA is how P$G became popular. They broke FFP 4 times by now but it will never go public thanks to ties with UEFA committee. Biggest disgrace in club football.

La Liga was incredible because of Messi vs Ronaldo and Barcelona vs Real Madrid rivalry. but these days, not so much. they are both gone. Ronaldo is now at Man United which won't really win something with him there. btw Ronaldo's dedication and love for Man United is obvious whenever he gets to play each week. and Messi at PSG? Messi is mostly there because of money which isn't something wrong. but I think the most important thing Messi has in his mind might be his last World Cup in 2022 and maybe the last Copa America in 2024 with Argentina? but still, I wish I would have seen Messi play in the Premier League for clubs like Man City or Chelsea tbh.

With a huge backing of Qatar, Ronaldo could be their next eye candy that could bring huge revenue stream from selling PSG merchandise and collaboration contracts. The star power if Ronaldo sign for the team (with Messi already in Paris) could bring an unparalleled asset

I don't think Al khelaifi thought all of this to sign Messi. Rather he thought all of this to harm competitors and found himself lucky-ish to get Messi in consequence. Also he has been brilliant to create a club that is not that dependant on his money, he is making PSG "sustainable" so the day he decides to leave the club doesn't feel that much the departure of his money
