Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi has branded sharing dressing room with Sergio Ramos as ‘weird’ following historical rivalry between both superstars, Mirror reports.

The former Barcelona captain as well as the ex-Real Madrid skipper left their respective Spanish clubs to move to the French capital during the summer.

Both players shared fierce encounters in intense El Clasico matches during their time in Spain as the rivalry reached a whole new level.

However, Messi has showered praises on his teammate who is now prepared for his debut in the colours of the French club.

Messi's statement

Asked what it is like sharing a dressing room with Ramos, Messi told Marca:

"Now nothing, but at first it was weird after so many years of being rivals, being the two captains of Barcelona and Madrid, after so many Clasicos played, so many fights we had on the pitch.

"But all that is in the past and we have always respected each other a lot, no matter how much we have been rivals in those Clasicos. Having him as a teammate today is spectacular.

"Little by little he is getting back up to speed and hopefully he will play as quickly as possible because he is going to be a fundamental player in order to fight for our targets.”

PSG earlier considered terminating Ramos' contract

Meanwhile, reports earlier claim that PSG were considering the option of letting Sergio Ramos go after the former Real Madrid defender is yet to feature for the club since his arrival in the summer.

Having spent more than 15 years in the Spanish capital, the Spaniard joined the Parisians on free transfer about four months ago.

He is expected to bolster the club’s defence which already has the likes of Marquinhos and Presnel Kipembe, but he will likely make his debut for the club in the Champions League.
