PSG registered an increase in their merchandise sales with most of them being Lionel Messi shirts.
The club registered a 40% increase compared to last season in its income from merchandising, with talks of it being about €60 million, most of those coming from shirt sales. And according to L’Equipe, 60% of those have been Lionel Messi shirts.
Lionel Messi signed for PSG last August and has won Ligue 1 with his team mates. He scored for PSG in their 4-0 win vs. Montpellier on Saturday.
Lionel Messi jersey sales helped PSG equal last season’s revenue in just 6 months.His signing has proved highly lucrative for the club.His No.30 shirt account for 60% of the French side’s sales this season, beating that of Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Sergio Ramos among others.
While it’s common for new signings to attract more shirt buyers than the players who are already at the club, the gap here between Messi and the rest of the PSG squad is staggering.
