The transfer of Argentine striker “Paris Saint-Germain” Lionel Messi to “Barcelona” is at the player’s discretion. It has been reported World Deportivo.
The Catalan club insists that team president Joan Laporta will only start active work in this direction if the 35-year-old striker has expressed a desire to return to Spain.
The leadership of the blue garnet team believes that they cannot financially compete with other clubs competing for the Argentinean. Therefore, Messi will be able to return to Barcelona only if he feels like it and is willing to cut his salary.
Messi is a graduate of Barcelona. He made his debut in 2004. Together with the blue garnet, he won 35 championships. The forward has won the Ballon d’Or six times. He joined the PSG squad in August 2021.
On 20 December, the Argentina national team defeated France in a penalty shootout and became the winner of the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar. Messi was named the best player of the tournament.
