Doha, Qatar: Paris Saint-Germain coach Christophe Galtier confirmed that Argentine forward Lionel Messi will play his last game for the club against Clermont on Saturday.
In a press conference held on Thursday, Galtier said: "I have had the privilege of coaching the best football player ever, Leo Messi."
"Tomorrow [Saturday] will be his last game at the Parc des Princes. I hope he will be welcomed in the best way possible," he added.
Messi recently helped Paris Saint-Germain clinch a record 11th French league title and broke another scoring record in the process. Messi scored his 496th career league goal in Europe, breaking Cristiano Ronaldo's scoring record for Europe's top five leagues.
