Sergio Busquets admits that he misses Lionel Messi so much. He wants Messi to return to Barcelona. Busquets is ready to return to giving the El Barca captain’s armband to Messi.
Messi left the Barcelona he had played for more than two decades earlier this season. La Pulga moved to Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer after El Barca experienced a financial crisis and was unable to extend his contract.
But Messi’s career with Les Parisiens did not go smoothly. This Argentine player has difficulty adapting to be able to show his best performance at PSG.
He has only scored two goals from 18 matches in the French League, despite being able to pack 11 assists. Messi’s lackluster performance has also made PSG fans cheer him on in the last few matches.
This situation led to the news that Messi wanted to return to Barcelona. Blaugrana coach, Xavi Hernandez, has also said that the door is wide open for the 34-year-old star to return to Camp Nou.
Barcelona pillar, Sergio Busquets, also revealed how much he misses Messi. He admitted that he really wanted Messi to return. The Spanish midfielder insists he will be willing to return the Barcelona captain’s armband to Messi.
Messi’s current contract at PSG is still remaining until June 2023. Salary issues may be a barrier for Messi to return to Barcelona.
“Of course I miss him. On and off the pitch. What he gave us… What he did, nobody else could. He made a big difference. After all these years, it’s normal to miss him. will miss me too,” Busquets said in an interview with RAC1.
“When you don’t win you are not happy. I wish him the best. I want Leo to come back, but I know it’s very difficult. He’s still under contract, how can he leave…
“If Xavi [Hernandez] told him that the door was open. That’s what I imagine myself as a friend and team-mate. I will give him the captain’s armband. He has always had the admiration and respect of me,” Busquets said.
