Speaking recently to Sportscenter, as relayed by PSG Talk, Scaloni said that his countryman’s eventual retirement would be as emotional as Federer’s.

“I think you have to take advantage of it. It’s like Federer. He retired, and what happened?

Everyone was emotional and said to themselves: ‘He’s not here any more; he’s not going to play more. The same will happen with (Messi).

So let’s enjoy it, regardless of the country,” said Scaloni. Roy Nemer@RoyNemer Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni on Lionel Messi: "I enjoy him just like you.

I have the opportunity to coach him, but if I was a supporter, I would pay a ticket to see him, and I’ll buy his shirt. The only thing left to do is enjoy. I don’t know if such an experience will ever happen again,” said Scaloni.

Messi has six goals and eight assists from 11 games this season for the Parisians.

PSG interested in Manuel Ugarte

Manuel Ugarte has admirers at the Parc des Princes.

PSG are keeping a close eye on Manuel Ugarte, according to A Bola via PSG Talk. The Ligue 1 champions spent heavily on their midfield this summer, but are planning for more reinforcements in the days ahead.

New sporting director Luis Campos wants to add more quality to the middle of the park and now has Ugarte in his agenda. The Uruguayan has been a vital cog in the Sporting Lisbon midfield of late, playing nine times this season in a defensive midfield role. The Parisians lack a player of his ilk, and Campos believes he could prove to be crucial to the club’s ambitions.

However, the Portuguese side are likely to demand a premium price for his signature, as the player has a €60 million release clause. The 21-year-old is tied to Sporting till 2026, and the French giants might have to pay around €40 million to secure his signature.
