After triumphing at the recent World Cup in Qatar, Lionel Messi has returned to Paris Saint-Germain.
The club gave the little genius a lengthy vacation. With seven goals and the coveted Golden Ball award, Messi stole the spotlight in Qatar.
But now that Messi and his Argentine teammates’ celebrations—which appeared to be pretty epic—have ended, it’s time to get back to work. The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner was given a Guard of Honour before being given another honor as his teammates cheered.
Messi was welcomed as a hero before returning to PSG and participating in his first training session.
