Lionel Messi is currently making headlines in the world sports press with his departure from Barcelona for PSG. But it's not just football in life!
And the world star has also explained it very well at the microphone of Olé.
The now ex-captain of Barcelona returned to his secret passions. And we learn that the one who is considered one of the best football players of all time is passionate about padel. It must be said that in Barcelona, many football players test themselves at padel, including his former and future partner Neymar who has downright installed 2 padel courts in his luxurious property in Brazil.

Mauricio Pochettino, PSG coach, is also a padel fan. We could see him in the Paris region alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar. Moreover, a famous Parisian club has already welcomed some PSG players. Lionel Messi is expected there, racket in hand!
Sanyo Gutierrez sees it this way his idol go to France. All the more reason for the world number 4 to come to Paris more often!

Franck Binisti discovered padel at the Club des Pyramides in 2009 in the Paris region. Since then, padel has been part of his life. You often see him touring France to cover major French padel events.
