BREAKING: Lionel Messi agrees to join PSG on two-year deal

Lionel Messi has reached an agreement on a two-year contract with Paris Saint Germain (PSG) over a transfer to the French soccer club, according to Sky Sports, adding he was due to arrive in Paris in the coming hours.

The six-time Ballon d’Or winner had two other options after leaving Barcelona last week, but has chosen to move to the French club on a deal worth £25m per year after tax.

Messi was set to extend his 21-year stay at Barcelona by signing a new five-year deal this summer.

However, the club announced on Thursday that “financial and structural obstacles” meant the deal could not be completed, meaning Messi left as a free agent.

Messi, the 34-year-old record goalscorer for both Argentina and Barcelona, is one of the greatest players of all time.

Aregbesola also urged states to share in the burden of decongesting custodial facilities by constructing holding centres, adding that all the states needed to do was to build the facilitie...
