Messi has looked revitalized in his second season with Paris Saint-Germain which has since culminated in World Cup success.
The former Barcelona ace has been on and off the field after his Mundial success but he is expected to feature for PSG in their Ligue 1 fixture against Stade Reims on Sunday evening.
Ahead of his side’s league match, Messi proved he could be equally good at mischief as producing mesmeric moments on the pitch with the ball glued at his feet.
What did Lionel Messi do?
Messi hit the back of Verratti’s head with a ball before ‘innocently’ walking away from the scene with a ‘devilish’ smile.
Fortunately for him, his saint-like appearance made Verratti rule him out as the prime suspect while concentrating on Neymar, who was completely innocent, instead.
Here is the video:
Mbappe up to ‘serious’ mischief
Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe was caught in a mischievous moment during PSG’s first team tour of the club’s new training base in Poissy, Paris.

In the hilarious video making the rounds on social media, seen by Sports Brief, Mbappe who was standing directly behind Galtier, mischievously hit the head of his coach, who was wearing a protective helmet.
Messi ‘finally’ speaks English
