One of the people closest to Lionel Messi in the world of football – and in his personal life – is Manchester City legend, Sergio ‘Kun’ Agüero. The ex-player has repeatedly talked about personal moments with Messi ever since they began to share a dressing room in the youth ranks of the Argentinian National Team, and still continue their strong relationship today.

Recently, Kun revealed information about the moments in which Lionel Messi chose to move to the United States failed move to PSG, which Messi himself described as “difficult to enjoy”. Agüero also decided to share his opinion on the number 10′s move to MLS, which has seen the player move to a completely new environment, one which he has not been able to experience in Europe.

Messi went to MLS ‘for his family’ reveals Agüero

Agúero spoke to outlet Sportskeeda, in which he said that “I think Messi [went to MLS] for his family and himself, so they were OK, so he could play in as relaxed as possible. If he had been playing in Europe, obviously it’s another sense of demand, and that’s why he couldn’t play in Europe the way he wanted, which is to enjoy himself.”

After that, the ex-City and Atlético forward mentioned that “between Miami and Saudi Arabia, I think he chosen Miami out of comfort. Miami is a lovely place, there are a lot of South Americans, and I think he saw it from a family point of view, where I think they can fit in quite well. In Saudi Arabia it could be more complicated, I don’t think he saw any more in it than that.”
