The Argentinean has been lively on the pitch, but has so far failed to find the back of the net in five Ligue 1 games. The Parisians have not been affected by his slow start in the league, as they sit atop the league standings with a ten-point advantage.Lionel Messi has been his usual self in the UEFA Champions League, though. The Argentinean has scored thrice in as many games in the competition for PSG, including a blistering brace against RB Leipzig to spark a comeback on matchday three. However, the six-time Ballon d'Or winner has come under scrutiny due to his inability to hit the ground running in the French league.Nevertheless, Leonardo remains unperturbed by Messi's barren run in Ligue 1. The PSG sporting director is confident Messi would turn things around, blaming his struggles due to his international commitments.“Messi arrived and, with these stories of international break, spent his first two months more in the national team than in Paris. When you travel so much, it is logical that there is a muscle discomfort,” said Leonardo. “I’m not worried because I see what happens every day,” added Leonardo.Roy Nemer@RoyNemerLionel Messi has played more matches for Argentina since he won the Copa America than he has for PSG in the league.
