Barcelona
Argentine striker Lionel Messi could return to Barcelona after two years at PSG. Of course, the world champion asked for a condition that has nothing to do with money.
The champion of the world, Lionel Messihas given clues about his return to Barcelona in recent days, with his contract in the PSG about to expire.
La Pulga was seen cycling through the streets of the city last week, while his children were registered to start the school year at their old school in Barcelona.
According to the Spanish press, the only condition that Messi put in order to return to the Catalan club is that the president, Joan Laporta, publicly apologize for letting him go two years ago.
Mateu Alemany, Barça’s sports director, was consulted about Messi’s possible return: “He really likes to come and he was in Barcelona for a few days as usual, but there was no contact with Messi.”
Likewise, Barcelona adds some complications to bring it back, since it must comply with the financial Fair Play.
They have already consulted the Danish Andreas Christensen and the Ivorian Franck Kessié for possible low wages, which allow a quota for Messi, but they received a slam from the players.
Meanwhile, Javier Tebas, president of the League, pointed out: “Messi’s return? Barça is not like PSG, which has a gas and money tap. I see it as complicated. There is still time, but there will have to be departure of players, decrease in salary mass. There will have to be to be able to register Messi. And then there is a piece of information that we do not know, which is Messi’s salary”.
The truth is that Messi will not continue in France and it is not Barcelona, so it will be another place, which could be the United States.
In recent games, the man from Rosario has been blundered and after this Sunday’s defeat against Lorient he was harshly criticized on French television.
“I don’t want to see Messi anymore at PSG. He does not want to invest in this club. I saw his statement where he said: ‘I’m fine, acclimatized’. But what are you acclimated to? Because you scored 18 goals or 16 assists this year against Angers and Clermont? In the games that matter he completely disappears. Which is a joke, because we’ve seen their World Cup matches,” said former player Jerome Rothen on RMC Sports.
