Will Messi return to "Barcelona"? Journalist Guillem Balague clarified

Recently, rumors about Lionel Messi's return to "Barselona" have started to spread again. However, renowned journalist Gilem Balage provided a clear answer, emphasizing that there is no possibility of Messi returning to Catalonia.

? "Messi will not return to Barselona. There is no chance of that. As long as club president Joan Laporta remains in his position, Messi will not come to Catalonia. "Inter Miami" will do everything possible to keep Leo in the team," Balage wrote.

Why doesn't Messi want to return to Barselona?

The Argentine star left "Barselona" in 2021, and this process was very painful. Messi cited the actions of Laporta's administration as the reason for leaving the club, and it is known that he is still hurt by it.

? After Messi left Barselona
? 2021-2023 – spent two seasons with "PSG".
? 2023 – joined "Inter Miami" and won his first major trophy with the club — the Leagues Cup.

What plans does the "Inter Miami" management have?

Currently, 37-year-old Messi's contract with "Inter Miami" is valid until the end of 2025. However, the club management is planning to sign a new deal with him and keep him in the team.

? Messi is being offered significant financial opportunities to stay in Miami.
? He is being given the chance to be an important figure in further developing soccer in the USA.
? The club is ready to offer the Argentine star a long-term contract.

In conclusion, the rumors about Messi's return to "Barselona" have no basis. The likelihood of him staying at "Inter Miami" is high, and the club is making significant efforts in this regard. Returning to Catalonia is currently not a realistic option.
