Not long ago, Jorge Messi commented on his son’s possible return to FC Barcelona: “I don’t think Leo will play for Barca again. The prerequisites for this are simply not given. We have not spoken to Laporta (Joan, club president, editor’s note) and there is no offer at all.” This statement is no longer current.
Because at least both sides have spoken to each other now. As reported by ‘Catalunya Ràdio’, Jorge Messi and Joan Laporta recently met. Three topics were on the agenda. On the one hand, it was about a possible honor for La Pulga. Because his departure from FC Barcelona in the summer of 2021 came as a surprise, such an act had to wait – and until today.
Laporta also wanted to speak to the world champion’s father and advisor about his other son’s actions. He recently fired violently in the direction of Barça and only apologized for his words afterwards.

But the third and crucial issue was a possible future for Leo at the Camp Nou. Finally, Messi currently tends to leave Paris St. Germain at the end of the season, FT reported exclusively. According to ‘Catalunya Ràdio’, no significant progress has been made towards a return to Barcelona.
But a first foundation stone has been laid. This phase is primarily about getting rid of old problems in order to make room for new ones. The meeting seems to have made this possible, at least in theory. However, the financial obstacles remain a different matter.
