The Argentina international feels Ligue 1 football is just right for the ex-Huracan man and he expects him to be a hit at the Parc des Princes
Barcelona striker Lionel Messi believes Javier Pastore can excel at Paris Saint-Germain following his summer move from Serie A club Palermo.
The 22-year-old Argentina international moved to Ligue 1 in a reported €42 million deal, and life in France has started brightly for Pastore, whose PSG side lead the championship race.
Messi, who is currently on international duty along with 'El Flaco', hailed the ex-Palermo man and said moving to France was a good choice.
"Pastore was wanted by a number of big clubs, but Paris are building a great team now and Pastore has great qualities. I am sure he will progress at PSG," Messi told Canal Football Club.
"I think playing in France is difficult, but this will help him."
Argentina take on Colombia in a World Cup South America qualifying match on Tuesday night.
