WHY I TRAVELED TO SAUDI ARABIA WITHOUT PERMISSION - MESSI

Lionel Messi, a forward for Paris Saint-Germain, has opened up about his decision to travel to Saudi Arabia without permission.

Recall that the club punished the World Cup champion from Argentina with a two-week suspension for his immoral behavior.

In a video response to his suspension, Messi stated that he has already apologized to his teammates and is awaiting the club's decision.

He said, "I thought we were going to have a day off after the game as always. I had this trip organised, and I couldn't cancel it. I had already cancelled it before.

Messi added: "I apologize to my teammates and I'm waiting for what the club wants to do with me".
