Paris Saint-Germain chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi has hit back at Lionel Messi's claim that he was the only member of Argentina's World Cup-winning squad not to be recognized by his club.

In a recent interview with "Migue Granados on OLGA, Messi admitted he 'wasn't happy' at the Parc des Princes and seemed disappointed with his treatment after the World Cup.
