Updated:2025-12-06 07:00    Views:114

Lionel Messi is one of the greatest football players in history, and he has been playing for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) since January 2017. In this article, we will take a look at the passing success rate of Messi at PSG and compare it to his previous performances with Barcelona.

Firstly, let's start with the passing success rate of Messi at PSG. According to data from Transfermarkt, Messi has had a success rate of 84% when making passes during the first half of games played by PSG. This compares very well to his success rate of 85% when making passes during the first half of games played by Barcelona.

However, there are some differences between Messi's performance at PSG and his previous performances with Barcelona. For example, Messi has made fewer successful passes per game at PSG than he did with Barcelona. In fact, he has averaged just over two successful passes per game at PSG compared to three per game at Barcelona.

Another factor that may have contributed to these changes is the style of play adopted by PSG under their new coach Mauricio Pochettino. The team has adopted a more defensive approach, which may have affected Messi's passing success rate.

Overall, while Messi's passing success rate at PSG is still impressive, it is clear that he faces some challenges when playing for a different club and playing in a different style of play. However, he remains a key player for PSG and is expected to continue contributing to their success in the future.
