Lionel Messi could play for PSG, says Patrick Kluivert
Patrick Kluivert has refused to rule out Lionel Messi playing for Paris Saint Germain in the future.
Messi’s current deal at Barcelona runs until 2018 but his future at the Nou Camp is not certain as he is yet to sign an extension to his contract.
And PSG director of football Kluivert refused to rule out a move for the Argentinian superstar after the French champions thrashed Barca 4-0 in the Champions League.

He said: ‘Messi? Never say never. Every team wants a player like Messi.’
Angel Di Maria produced two sublime finishes as Paris St Germain thrashed Barcelona at the Parc des Princes, leaving the La Liga giants facing elimination in the last 16 of the Champions League.
Former Real Madrid star Di Maria opened the scoring with a fine free-kick on his 29th birthday and curled home a second in between efforts from Julian Draxler and another birthday boy, 30-year-old Edinson Cavani.
