Another reason as to why Messi could choose PSG over Manchester City is because of the less intensity of the French league. The Premier League is known to be a very rugged and physically demanding league and even a strong and physical player like Didier Drogba had struggles fitting into the English league after his transfer from Marseille to Chelsea. Messi is already 33 years of age so moving to a less intense league would mean that he could extend his career for a few more years and not be too worried about injuries.
