The contract between PSG and Lionel Messi is scheduled until 2023, but on the side of the Catalan media we can see the Argentinian returning to Barça this year.
It’s obvious, since Lionel Messi decided to leave FC Barcelona last summer to join Paris Saint-Germain, some Spanish journalists are enraged. Even if the French club is in no way responsible for Barça’s decision, which only pays for the disastrous management of Josep Maria Bartomeu, seeing the Pulga join PSG was experienced as a nightmare on the other side of the Pyrenees. While Real Madrid still think they can afford Kylian Mbappé, the trauma is not calming down in the capital of Catalonia, to the point where Lionel Messi’s return is regularly mentioned, these rumors being based on the fact, not established , that the seven-time Ballon d’Or and his family would not really feel good in the capital. So, all it took was a round trip from Leo Messi to Barcelona to participate in the birthday of Xavi, his former teammate now FC Barcelona coach, for everything to get carried away.

Orchestra master of this huge buzz on Lionel Messi, Josep Pedrerol and his show El Chiringuito, never stingy with banana peels to slip under the feet of Paris Saint-Germain. It was Lobo Carrasco, a former Barcelona player, who now works for several media outlets, including Mundo Deportivo, who dropped this bombshell. ” Lionel Messi is not happy in Paris as he was in Barcelona, I see signs that suggest that he will return to Barça (…) He terminated by fax with Barça who was his team. life, do you imagine he couldn’t do the same with Paris? “Launched Carrasco, who took pleasure in mentioning the coming of the Argentine star to Xavi’s birthday to give weight to his arguments. However, even within El Chiringuito this return of the Pulga is struggling to convince. “ The relationship between Messi and Laporta is totally broken. As long as Laporta is there, Lionel Messi’s chances of a comeback are nil “, replied José Alvarez, another specialized journalist.
This is not the first time that such a rumor has circulated, the Argentine player having fueled the buzz by confiding a few weeks after his signing in Paris that he was struggling to adapt to the weather and traffic in the capital. . A little phrase that had tilted in Barcelona, even if Lionel Messi has since found accommodation in Neuilly and has integrated very well into Parisian life. But in Barcelona, each appearance of the Argentine star in the jersey of PSG is always experienced as a heartbreak, even if the club of Joan Laporta no longer has the financial means to afford a player of this standing.
