The French newspaper "L'Équipe" revealed that Argentine star Lionel Messi intended to assault his former teammate Achraf Hakimi while they were at Paris Saint-Germain, but Spanish defender Sergio Ramos intervened before the altercation could occur. According to the report published on the newspaper's website on Friday, the animosity between the Argentine legend and the Moroccan right-back had intensified, and Messi wanted to attack Hakimi. Neymar then attempted to side with Messi against the Moroccan, before Sergio Ramos stepped in to resolve the issue and warned Neymar, saying: "If you get up, I will intervene as well." Messi and Hakimi played together in 59 matches for Paris Saint-Germain over the past two seasons before the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner transferred to Inter Miami in the summer.
