Following a disappointing first season at PSG, Messi went on to finish 2022–2023 with 16 goals and 16 assists in Ligue 1.

Messi stated on the podcast Big Time:

“The change was difficult when I went to PSG, because I was doing very well in Barcelona and I planned to stay there.

“I was not prepared to leave, everything happened very quickly, I had to rebuild my life from one day to the next. I got to know another league, another club, a new locker room.

“It was a change that we were not looking for and that is why it was difficult at first.”
