In a statement Paris Saint-Germain released, we learned that the tokens are a part of the welcome package or even a signing–on fee prepared for the footballer. According to PSG, the tokens come from Socios.com, a top sports fan token platform.

As for now, we’re yet to get the deal’s exact details since the club hasn’t made it public. PSG only revealed that Messi would get a large number of tokens. Messi was playing for the Spanish club Barcelona before this deal.

There is also a possibility for a third-year agreement for the player. Also, these tokens are estimated to be worth 25 to 30 million euros. With such a large number of tokens, Messi has now joined the crypto craze.

PSG Token Offering Perks To Hodlers

Many holders of the PSG tokens enjoy several benefits by holding the PSG token. One of the perks is that they can choose motivational messages on the walls of the dressing room. Also, they can vote on decisions that affect the club’s operations.
