Paris Saint-Germain is searching for a new striker to replace the Argentine superstar, Lionel Messi, who has hinted that he may leave the club at the end of the current Ligue 1 season.
The Parisian giants have been linked with several high-profile strikers in recent weeks, including Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku and Chelsea's Timo Werner. However, the club's hierarchy remains focused on finding a replacement for Messi, who has scored 29 goals in his first season with PSG.
The news comes as a blow to PSG, who were already struggling to maintain their lead at the top of the French league table this season. With Messi out of contract at the end of the year, it's likely that the club will be looking to bring in a world-class striker to help them challenge for the title next season.
While the search for a new striker continues, there's no doubt that Messi's departure would have a significant impact on PSG's fortunes. The Argentinian forward has been a key player for the club since his arrival in 2011, scoring over 250 goals in just five seasons.
As the club looks ahead to the future, it's clear that they need to find a way to replace Messi if they hope to compete with the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City in Europe's elite leagues. While there are plenty of options available, it remains to be seen whether any of them can match the level of performance that Messi has shown throughout his time at PSG.
