It didn’t take long before the Messi to Barcelona rumor resurfaced. Just three months after signing for Inter Miami, the Argentine has once again been linked with a return to Catalonia by the daily Sportwho this week put forward the idea of seeing the seven-time Ballon d’Or being loaned to his former club in January.
Called to comment on this information this Saturday at a press conference, Inter Miami coach Tata Martino gave a funny response: “Messi to Barcelona? It’s going to be for walking, right? This surprises me, I don’t know, said the former Barça technician (2013-2014), before continuing. If you tell me he’s going to Barcelona on vacation, I’d say yes, it’s likely, but I’m not even sure.»
