Lionel Messi was reportedly offered 'everything money could buy' by Paris Saint-Germain to reunite him with Neymar.

The 34-year-old is currently a free agent after his contract at Barcelona expired on July 1.

But it is understood that the Argentina international has agreed a new five-year deal at the Nou Camp, with the official announcement expected imminently.

The news will come as a blow to Brazilian forward Neymar, who has been keen to play alongside the six-time Ballon d'Or winner again.

Neymar - who was recently snapped with Messi in Ibiza - spent four seasons in Catalonia, where he won the LaLiga title twice and Champions League once.

And according to TNT Sports and Radio Italia journalist Marcelo Bechler, Les Parisiens tried in vain to bring Messi to Parc des Princes.

He tweeted: "PSG was very confident and wanted Messi very much.

"They offered him everything money could buy. Neymar really wanted to play with his idol again.

"Messi wants to stay in the club of his life."

Exclusive Leon Gissing, 16, supplies the likes of Mason Greenwood, Bukayo Saka, Reece James, Gabriel Martinelli, Ansu Fati and Marcus Thuram with the latest designer gear.

“Essentially, I’m a football fan,” says Leon Gissing. “I love football and I also love shoes.”

Nothing out of the ordinary for a 16-year-old.

But that’s just about where the normalities stop when it comes to the face behind Plug Leon .

Whilst most teenagers are shopping for their sneakers at JD Sports and watching Premier League games either from the stands or their TV screens, Leon is rubbing shoulders with the stars.

In his spare time - which is limited, these days - he’s playing video games with some of the game’s biggest names or being chauffeured in their supercars.

The reason?

He’s become the go-to supplier of high-end fashion items amongst the glitz and glamour of dressing rooms around Europe.

His brand boasts over 50,000 Instagram followers and supplies the likes of Bukayo Saka, Mason Greenwood, Reece James, Emile Smith Rowe and Ansu Fati with their latest designer gear.

“It’s a dream,” he says.

“I’ll play Call of Duty with guys like Joe Willock, Reiss Nelson. I go to their houses, I’ll play two-touch with them, or they might pick me up from somewhere in the nicest supercars.

“Their houses are always crazy, and the fact it gets to a personal level, the experiences money can’t buy, that’s great. It’s those personal experiences that stand out.”

Never in his wildest dreams could Leon have anticipated how quickly his business would take off.

“I was just a 13-year-old kid who always wanted to make a couple of extra quid here and there,” he recalls.

With a passion for shoes, Leon would spend his free time watching YouTube to keep on top of the latest trends.

With a passion for shoes, Leon would spend his free time watching YouTube to keep on top of the latest trends.

The only problem was that his parents would only buy him one new pair a year, either as a birthday or Christmas present.

After delving into the resale community, he started queuing outside stores to buy limited edition trainers before selling them for a mark-up.

The catalyst, however, came when he went to Queen’s Club and asked American tennis star Jack Sock for a selfie as he left the court.

“Nice sneakers, kid,” said Sock, to which Leon replied, “Oh, I can get you a pair”.

Having built connections in the resale community, the teenager was confident he could deliver.

A few weeks later, he duly made good on his promise, supplying Sock three pairs of trainers including some “super rare off-white Nike’s he couldn’t find anywhere”.

A couple of months later, Sock returned to London for the ATP Tour Finals and placed another order.

Unable to find a time or place to exchange the good, he invited Leon and his dad courtside to watch the action from the players’ box at the O2 Arena.

As Leon delivered Sock his shoes after the match, he had a light bulb moment.

“From that moment I was like, this is what I want to do, dealing with footballers, athletes. I want to deal with these guys because that’s an experience I’ll never forget.”

“My eyes were opened,” he states. “I was like ‘wow!’”

Leon’s mind was set on a new goal; supplying the stars. But there was one small problem.

“These guys are untouchable, right?” He admits.

“I knew I had connections, had the suppliers. I knew I could supply them with all of the latest clothes, all of the latest shoes.

“I just didn’t know how to get to the footballers.”

As ever, Leon got creative.

As a football fan, he already used to track down players for autographs at games around London.

“These guys were my idols,” he says. “I just wanted to meet them and take a selfie or get an autograph before they played their game.

“So I just changed from asking for their autographs to handing out my business cards,” he explains.

“I’d run down Fulham Road with my cards in hand, knock on their window and hand them their card through their window.”

Leon knew it was a long shot.

“Not everyone is going to look or even care,” he concedes. “But all it takes is one. Football is a very small world.”

Eventually, his persistence paid off, and a slice of luck meant he found the ‘one’ he needed.

After selling a pair of shoes to another client, they were uploaded to snapchat crediting Leon as the supplier.

Hours later, Arsenal youngster Reiss Nelson, then on loan at Hoffenheim, added him on the social media app.

“I wasn’t believing what I was seeing,” Leon says. “I thought it was a fake account.”

Never one to miss an opportunity, he dropped him a direct message.

A month later, Nelson got in touch to say he would be flying into London that evening and asking for a couple of pairs of the latest shoes.

In a short time-frame, Leon delivered the goods.

“Three pairs he asked for, and I had them for him off the plane. I was waiting outside his house with his shoes when he was getting out of his car.

“He was happy with his shoes and that was the spark that lit the fire, essentially.”

Just as he had hoped, Nelson walking into the dressing room wearing the latest Plug Leon-supplied gear sparked a surge in demand.

“It just snowballed,” he says. “It was crazy.

“It went from Reiss Nelson to a lot of the Arsenal youngsters, and I think the nice thing was I was dealing with these Arsenal players who are now superstars right from the start.

“Guys like Bukayo Saka, I delivered shoes to his house when he was still living with his parents in Ealing, now he’s playing for England in the Euros.

“Emile Smith Rowe, just signed a new contract and playing week in, week out for Arsenal.

“I was kind of lucky because these guys I was dealing with, before they made it, have become superstars. And I’ve come up with them, in a way.

“The reason Saka or Smith Rowe or Mason Greenwood will keep coming back to me is because they know I treated them just as well when they were just kids playing Under-18s on a scholarship.”

“People think social media, in this modern day, is everything,” he reflects. “But word of mouth is something that I think is still so, so important.”

After initially selling to members of the Arsenal squad, the first lockdown proved another turning point for Plug Leon.

“Obviously we were home-schooling which meant I could be on my phone, doing business more,” he explains.

“Also, these footballers couldn’t go to Selfridges, Harvey Nicholls, Harrods, these places they go shopping.

“So they’d come to me instead because I was still providing the goods, the shoes, the clothes, accessories, bags. I could still get it. That’s when things took off.”

Last September, he flew out to Germany on a trip funded by Swiss star Breel Embolo.

He carried five suitcases worth of luxury items worth thousands of pounds, distributing them to the Borussia Monchengladbach squad as well as Borussia Dortmund and Schalke stars.

“That was huge,” he says. “People hadn’t done that before.

“From there, people realised I was working globally and that attracted more clients around Europe.”

A few months later, Marcus Thuram flew Leon back to Germany for another delivery, and the teenager was only happy to oblige.

“I like to deal personally,” he says. “I want them to trust me so we’re business first but friends second. It’s still a friendship. I prioritise that.

“Not only do I care about them, but if orders are there I will fly out and fully commit.

“I like to give a personal service.”

As well as giving 10/10 service, it means getting to experiences things most 16-year-old can only dream of courtesy of his hundreds of clients.

“When I got flown out to Germany I went straight to his house and they were all really hospitable to me,” he says.

“A bunch of players came over, we had music playing, hanging out and we were handing out their stuff.

“Just sitting around all these superstars, music playing, kicking a ball around. To me, that’s just crazy.

“It’s the sort of stuff I could only dream of. Obviously it’s fantastic to make money and have extra cash, but I’m just living a dream doing a lot of these things.”

There have, of course, been obstacles.

School also provided practical obstacles, such as missing out on a business trip to France to supply members of the Paris Saint-Germain squad as he prepared to sit a GCSE exam.

“My parents just said, ‘you can’t do that’,” he reveals.

But his parents remain wholly supportive, as do his school, who now recognise he remains committed to his education despite his fledgling business.

“School is still a big priority for me. I still think it’s so important,” he reiterates.

“A lot of people at this stage would drop out of school because it’s too much, but I’ve sacrificed other things because I know how important it is.

“Just before my GCSE’s I had a couple of PSG players wanting me to take the Eurostar to Paris to deliver some things and my parents just said, ‘you can’t do that’.

“My parents have been incredible, fully supportive, but obviously they say to me, ‘school then business. School is the priority’.”

In order to balance work and education, he has been forced to miss out on the experiences of many other 16-year-olds.

Instead, he has two employees and is learning about money, cash flow, dealing with clients and various other skills.

“I’m learning stuff that school doesn’t teach you,” he says.

Whilst he was denied his trip to Paris last year, there is another in the pipeline which Leon hopes will help him land his dream client.

“The dream one I’ve already attempted,” he explains. “I have a couple of clients at PSG, and I put in a word with Thilo Kehrer.

“I said, ‘look, Mbappe. I need that. Please pull some strings for me. Just tell him I’m a young kid just hustling and trying to make some sales’.

“I asked him to put a word in, as you do, and he spoke to Kylian about me but he’s just a global superstar.

“We’re not talking about a Premier League player, he’s Kylian Mbappe. They just said, there’s no way, Nike hook him up with everything and whatever he wants.

“But you never know. I’ve got trips to Paris coming up, so maybe when I’m there I’ll meet him in person and give it a go!”

How will the 16-year-old salesman attempt to land his biggest catch?

https://omr.com/de/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/712_plug_leon_insta.jpg

“Make it personal, make it different,” he says. “Maybe you’ll see a photo of me, Neymar and Mbappe on my instagram.

“I’ve also got a trip to Barcelona planned. I sell to Ansu Fati, Ilaix Moriba and a few youngsters over there.

“Hopefully Lionel Messi will turn around and say, ‘oh, I like those shoes’. Who knows?

“I know it’s far-fetched, but if you don’t believe, you’ll never know.”

Given what he’s achieved so far, and how far-fetched his initial vision seemed, you certainly wouldn’t be surprised to see Plug Leon posing next to Mbappe or Messi in 2021.

Either way, the 16-year-old is here to stay in the glitzy and glamorous world where fashion and football mix.

A United States court has issued a warrant of arrest for a Deputy Commissioner of Police in Nigeria, Abba Kyari.

According to a court document obtained by Peoples Gazette, Otis Wright of the United States District Court for the Central District of California ordered the Federal Bureau of Investigation to track down Kyari and produce him in the United States for his role in a multi-million dollar fraud perpetrated by Ramon Abbas, aka Hushpuppi; and his co-conspirators.

The PUNCH had earlier reported that the court said Hushpuppi used Kyari to arrest and jail a co-conspirator, Chibuzo Vincent, after the latter threatened to expose a $1m fraud committed against a Qatari businessman.

According to the indictment by the court, Hushpuppi allegedly conspired with five others – including Vincent – to defraud the businessperson (whose name was withheld) by claiming to be consultants and bankers who could facilitate a loan to finance the construction of a school in Qatar.

The document also said Hushpuppi worked with some of his partners in crime including 28-year-old Abdulrahman Juma from Kenya, and 40-year-old Chibuzo Vincent from Nigeria. Other are Yusuf Anifowoshe, 26; Rukayat Fashola, 28; and Bolatito Agbabiaka, 34.

However, Hushpuppi allegedly hunted Vincent after a dispute broke out among the team and after the latter threatened to expose the fraud to the Qatari businessman.

“According to the affidavit, Kyari is a highly decorated deputy commissioner of the Nigeria Police Force who is alleged to have arranged for Vincent to be arrested and jailed at Abbas’ behest, and then sent Abbas photographs of Vincent after his arrest. Kyari also allegedly sent Abbas bank account details for an account into which Abbas could deposit payment for Vincent’s arrest and imprisonment,” the statement partly read.

American Singer Kelly Clarkson has been ordered to pay her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock $200,000 (N100 million) per month in spousal and child support.

A Los Angeles County judge handed down the order Tuesday that Clarkson give Blackstock $150,000 per month in spousal support, as well as $45,601 per month in child support, People has learned.

The arrangement means that Blackstock (her ex husband), 43, will receive $195,601 in total from Clarkson each month, or roughly $2.4 million per year. The order also requires the singer to pay $1.25 million towards her estranged husband's attorney fees and costs for their ongoing divorce.

A source previously told People that Blackstock had been aiming for more than double the amount in support, requesting that Clarkson pay him $436,000 per month ($301,000 in spousal support and $135,000 in child support).

Clarkson is being represented by celebrity attorney Laura Wasser, who recently launched It's Over Easy. The service helps streamline the divorce process for individuals who might not be able to obtain her services otherwise.

A source previously told People that Blackstock had been aiming for more than double that amount, requesting that Clarkson pay him $436,000 per month

Clarkson filed for divorce in June 2020 after seven years of marriage.

Earlier this month, Clarkson appealed for a judge to officially sign off on her divorce, leaving other arrangements such as spousal and child support for a later date.

In a declaration to the court obtained by People, Clarkson reasoned that she and Blackstock "both deserve the opportunity to build a new life."

Back in November, an L.A. County judge granted Clarkson primary physical custody of their children River Rose, 6, and Remington Alexander, 4.

A source close to the family told People at the time that Clarkson is "pleased" by the custody ruling and that her priority is to protect her children.

"As Kelly has said, her first priority in all of this is to take care of the kids and all the hearts that are involved in this divorce," a second source said. "It's been a hard time for everyone, but Kelly's pleased with the court's ruling regarding custody."

"Divorce is hard and it gets tense for most couples going through it. But Kelly's primary focus is on doing the best she can to protect the kids," the source added. "In this case, she had to fight for them since Brandon and his attorneys were making unreasonable requests."

Timo Sterling, a Nigerian man based in the United States, has advised Africans against dating anyone in Bronx, a borough of New York City.

Speaking with Legit TV, Sterling said those living in that area are gangsters and ex-convicts, adding that there are no responsible people there.

Thug life in Bronx;

Sterling said those living in Bronx are into thug life and anyone who doesn't have such lifestyle is loathed in that area.

According to him, dating anyone from Bronx is like inviting trouble to one's life. The young man advised anyone who wants to move to the United States to also stay away from that particular neighbourhood.

In his words:

"If you are from Africa and you are coming down to New York and you want to date somebody in New York, don't ever try Bronx. Don't even relocate to Bronx. They don't care about life."

Know the person you are coming to New York to meet;

Sterling advised people to be careful before getting into relationships with people in New York. He said some of the men have incurred debts and won't tell their partners.

According to Sterling, an African woman who joins her partner in New York will be the one to feed him with her hard earned money because the latter is paying off debts.
