  • A video showing a sea of crowd in the United States' Milwaukee to celebrate the Bucks' NBA Finals win is viral with a false claim that it shows Paris Saint-Germain fans waiting outside Paris Airport to welcome footballer Lionel Messi. Thousands of PSG fans on August 10 gathered to greet Messi, who arrived in Paris to reportedly finalise on a two-year deal with the football club Paris St Germain. The deal will see the Argentine player receive a €25 million signing-on fee and earn €25 million a year with the option of an additional year. The Messi recently broke down while addressing his farewell press conference, after confirming that he was leaving Barcelona after 21 years. The caption with the viral video reads , "PSG fans at the airport Yeah, Leo Messi is bigger than any sport". Click here and here to see such posts.
