Paris Saint‑Germain secured back‑to‑back Champions League titles, cementing a dominant run. In 2021, former Argentine star Juan Román Riquelme predicted that Lionel Messi would be essential for PSG’s European success, a claim that later became fodder for online jokes.
Riquelme had said, “If Messi doesn’t win the Champions League with PSG, he’ll never do it. ” The club’s recent triumph revived the old prophecy, turning it into a widely shared meme.
Fans are now circulating the failed prediction with tongue‑in‑cheek commentary. The episode highlights how quickly past forecasts can go viral in the football community.
