Messi also reportedly had Luis Suarez around later in the day for a game of paddle tennis as the cameras continued to camp outside his home.
The rumors that Messi is going to France had PSG fans out in force at the airport and outside the stadium in the hope of catching a sight of the GOAT.

It still seems Messi will end up with Mauricio Pochettino’s team with the latest updates suggesting the 34-year-old is reviewing PSG’s offer.
Reports in France say there is “optimism” a deal will be done but also warn that “everything can change from one moment to another.”
Back in Spain the word is that there is “still no total OK” even though it’s assumed Messi will be joining PSG.
The GOAT is not expected to travel to France until the deal has been wrapped up and doesn’t want to rush his decision even though PSG are pressing to complete the signing.
