Lionel Messi has been leaving FC Barcelona for three and a half years now. However, although it evolves today under the colors of Inter Miami in MLS, after two seasons spent at Paris Saint-Germain, the Argentinian remains at the heart of the news of the Catalan club.
Indeed, persistent rumors evoke a possible return of the octuple gold ball to Barça. Venezuelan journalist Alex Candal, in particular, said that the Blaugrana staff was thinking about a repatriation of his legend.
An end of contract and doubts
However, if we believe the words of his Spanish colleague Guillem Balague, the return of “La Pulga” to Catalonia is not on the agenda. The latter has advanced several reasons which make this scenario highly improbable in the short term.
“Some details on this story. Messi's contract ends at the end of the season. Messi has no intention of returning to Barcelona. I would say that it is impossible as long as Laporta is in control. It is very likely that Inter Miami will succeed in convincing him to stay at the club ”, he explained on Xformerly Twitter.
