Socios.com said Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) forward Messi will be involved in Socios’ promotional and promotional activities in preparation for the World Cup in Qatar.
Speaking in the statement, Messi said:

The $PSG token is a fan token, tokenised asset representing proof of ownership or even membership. Users can acquire voting rights to influence the clubs they support by developing club-specific Fan tokens.
