Following Messi's suspension and apology, ex-Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper, Jerome Alonzo, has weighed in on the crisis rocking the Argentine star. Recall that Messi was got a two-week suspension by PSG for his ‘unauthorised’ trip to Saudi Arabia.

After assessing the situation, Alonzo told Le Parisien that he had never seen such severity at PSG, insisting that Messi deserved to be slapped on the knuckles.

“That [Lionel] Messi is sanctioned, it’s normal. But a fortnight’s ban on going to Camp des Loges makes no sense when you think of all those players who lugged the club around and got nothing,” Alonzo said.

“The truth is that the leaders did not know how to tell Messi they did not want him anymore and play the outrage. Except for the dismissal of Dhorasoo fifteen years ago, I have never seen such severity here.

“Messi deserved to be slapped on the knuckles and he takes a punch in the face. It’s very convenient to smash it. You did not want to look like an idiot saying, “I don’t want Messi anymore”. And you throw yourself on the first fault.

“But not sure that thus, you still don’t pass for an idiot to designate Messi as a thug.”

Messi joined PSG from Barcelona in the summer of 2021 after the Catalan club failed to renew his contract.

He is yet to sign a new contract with the French Ligue 1 champions, and his current deal will expire this summer.
