While Messi had a brief walk through Barcelona, what his father did in Spain and thrilled fans
Lionel Andres Messi was the hero of Paris Saint-Germain a few days ago, against LOSC Lille in Ligue 1. After the game, the Argentine and the rest of the squad were given a vacation by Christophe Galtier. Messi took the opportunity to return to the city of Barcelona, which was his home.
One of the most prestigious newspapers in Catalonia, ‘Catalunya Radio’, has reported that Jorge Messi, Lionel’s father, met with Laporta to discuss a possible return. However, apparently the economic conditions that the player would demand would not be met.
Lionel Messi’s future is uncertain. L’Équipe pointed out that Leo does not intend to extend his relationship with PSG until 2024 and the meeting between Jorge Messi and Laporta would confirm what was mentioned by the French newspaper. In the next few days Leo’s future would be confirmed, since his father has agreed another meeting with the Parisians after completing the key to the round of 16 Champions League against Bayern Munich.
The culés fans are excited about the return of their top star:
Lionel Messi is considered the greatest player in the history of FC Barcelona. Leo got 35 titles with the Catalans, including four Champions League and three Club World Cups. In 2021 he ended his cycle, since Laporta decided to break the negotiations, but everything would be forgotten for the world champion to return to the Blaugrana team.
