Will not leave or go from Inter Miami? This is the question posed by the supporters of the American club about their star Lionel Messi. Under contract until next December, the 2022 world champion has not yet signed an extension.
While the situation worries a large number of fans, the MLS communication manager Mahonry Mendoza wanted to reassure during an interview with Saudi media al-Riyadiyah. “” Messi's contract extends until the end of the year, more precisely until the end of the MLS season, and it will normally continue, after which its fate will be decided by Inter Miami officials concerning its extension for an additional year “, he said.
Mahonry Mendoza also adds that the inter -Miami co -owner, Jorge Mas is very optimistic about the extension of the Octuple Ballon d'Or. “” Jorge Mas, co -owner of Inter Miami, said it was optimistic about the maintenance of Messi with the team next year, and he will be present at the inauguration of Miami Freedom Park, the club stadium, in March 2026 ″, he said.
Lionel Messi attracted by Saudi Arabia?
If Inter Miami wants to be reassuring, many rumors indicate that the former legend of FC Barcelona could join Saudi Arabia in January 2026. Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri revealed that the father of the Argentinian player would be in discussion with the leaders of the Saudi Pro League.
However, this information was denied by the Spanish journalist Guilleme Balague, who assures that no discussion takes place between the entourage of Messi and Saudi Arabia. According to him, discussions are more about an extension with Inter Miami.
