Eager to leave Paris Saint-Germain after two seasons in the French capital, Lionel Messi has long been announced close to a return to FC Barcelona this summer. Unfortunately, it was indeed Inter Miami who swept the nose and beard of the Catalan club. Inevitably, the aborted transfer of Messi, seduced by the American franchise project and the discovery of Major League Soccer, disappointed some on the side of his former partners like Ronald Araujo. Like Barça fans, the 24-year-old, who recently extended his contract until 2026, was hoping to see him again in the colors blaugranasin vain.
“I was very excited that Leo (Messi editor’s note) could come, but I wish him the best. He’s in a nice place and he’s fine with his family. We all want him to be okay because we love him”soberly indicated the Uruguayan defender, remarks transcribed by Sport.
