THE FUTURE OF LIONEL MESSI is on everyone’s lips. With his contract at PSG close to expiring on June 30, the range of possibilities that the captain of the Argentine National Team has is wide.
PSG’s irregularity increases uncertainty. Although the Paris club expressed the wish that they could extend the relationship at the end of the season, for some time now there have been a series of statements and winks that lead one to believe that Messi could opt for another destination.
Joan Laporta, president of Barcelona, and Xavi, the coach, made it known that the doors of the Catalan club are open. The same did Phil Neville, DT of Inter MiamiMLS team.
To the combo was added the Only Aguerowho since he left football transferred all the freshness and lucidity he had on the pitch to his streams and when speaking to the press.
“He is seriously considering the possibility of playing at Newell’s”Agüero said about Messi’s future in dialogue with UOL.
Mindful that such a statement was not going to take long to have an impact, Maxi Rodríguez, present at the same interview, came out at the crossroads: “Kun is Kun. He can’t keep quiet. We will see. It’s hard to talk about this because then it’s a giant ball of rumors. Let’s wait and see what happens. Let’s not get ahead of the facts,” said La Fiera, idol of the Rosario club and Messi’s teammate in the Argentine National Team.
What will happen with Messi? On March 8, PSG plays the rematch against Bayern Munich for the Champions League and that match could precipitate a decision. After losing 1-0 in the first leg, he must turn the series around in Germany to stay alive in the Champions League, the contest that Messi won 4 times and has not won since 2015.
