The information that Barcelona could return Lionel Messi to their ranks came like a bolt from the blue.
Messi left the Catalan team last season after they could not meet his financial conditions.
The Argentine then decided to accept a rich offer from PSG, which is already offering him a new contract in order to prevent his possible negotiations with Barca and other clubs.
Previously, the president of the Spanish club, Joan Laporta, spoke. He pointed out that he would like Messi to return to Barcelona to complete his football story.
- I hope that the story of Lionel Messi and Barcelona is not over yet. I think so. Everything is open and it is our duty to ensure a much nicer end for him than it was. As the president of Barcelona, I feel obliged to Messi – said Laporta.
However, Xavi, on the other hand, sees the situation much more realistically and is aware that Paris Saint-Germain will not let the Argentine go so easily.
- There is no point in talking about it. At the moment it is unattainable. There are a lot of players who want to come and that speaks volumes about our global influence – Xavi said.
The legendary footballer has one more year left on his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, and then we will see where he will continue his career.
