FC Barcelona dreams of a return action Lionel Messi. And now President Joan Laporta is personally bringing hope to the Catalans’ fans.
On Sunday, FC Barcelona put on a sobering performance away in LaLiga at FC Getafe and did not get beyond a 0-0 draw. Some fans still had fun in the stands. Because they met Joan Laporta there. And so one of the supporters insisted on asking the president if Lionel Messi would come back to Barca. The leader of the Catalans let himself be elicited a “yes” including a wink.
Messi’s contract with PSG is up
Behind the scenes, Laporta is said to be trying to thread a Messi return. The contract of the 35-year-old Argentine, who had to leave Barca on a free transfer in 2021 due to financial problems, expires at Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season. And according to the French media, the PSG departure of the world champion is already almost a done deal. The only question that remains is whether Barca can financially convince LaLiga to register a Messi transfer.
