PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain manager Christophe Galtier said he had nothing to do with the club's decision to suspend Lionel Messi while he also condemned the Ligue 1 side's fans for staging protests outside Neymar's house.
French media reported that Messi was suspended for two weeks after an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia when he was supposed to train with his team following their 3-1 defeat at home to Lorient in the league on Sunday.
"I'm employed by the club and that is my role... The decision was nothing to do with me. I was informed of the decision. PSG's dip in form this year, especially after they were knocked out of the Champions League in the last-16 in early March, has been a cause for concern for supporters.
