Moments ago, the first video for Argentine's football icon Lionel Messi with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) kit went viral on social media. The video was captured inside Parc des Princes.

The video depicted the former Barcelona star in PSG full kit, marked with number 30, which ended one of the hottest topics around Messi's transformation to the Paris-based club.
On Tuesday, the player arrived in France to sign for Paris Saint-Germain after agreeing on a two-year contract.
The deal includes an option to extend by a year and gives the forward a net salary of about €35m (£29.6m) with bonuses factored in.
Messi flew from Barcelona and was greeted by a PSG tweet that confirmed he was joining and welcomed a “new diamond in Paris”. The 34-year-old waved to crowds of celebrating fans from a window at Le Bourget airport, north of the capital.
Messi, his lawyers, and his father, Jorge, had been in talks with PSG since Thursday when the player’s plan to stay at Barcelona collapsed because of the club’s financial situation. Messi had agreed to sign a five-year contract with Barcelona worth about €20m a season.
Jorge Messi had confirmed to the Spanish television station La Sexta at Barcelona airport that his son would sign for PSG on Tuesday and was asked whose fault it was that his son was leaving the Camp Nou. “Ask at the club,” he replied. A press conference and presentation is planned for 11 am Paris time on Wednesday.
The move enables Messi to link up again with Neymar, a former Barcelona teammate who has been working to convince the Argentinian to join him in Paris and gives PSG attacking options of Messi, Neymar, Kylian Mbappé and Ángel Di María.
