Journalist Miguel Rico said in a statement on his social media account that the world champion of the Argentina national team, Lionel Messi, told the Barcelona management that he would not return to the club.
According to him, the forward announced to the bosses of the Catalans that he plans to continue his career at MLS club Inter Miami.
The media wrote that the wife of football player Antonella advocated the family relocation to the USA, while Messi and his father were more inclined to the option of moving to Saudi Arabia and Al-Hilal.
On June 3, Messi played his last match as part of the French Paris Saint-Germain and took the field against Clermont in the 38th round of the French championship. Messi’s contract with the Parisians expires at the end of June this year. He transferred to PSG in 2021. Prior to that, the striker played for Barcelona throughout his career. The Catalans have repeatedly expressed their desire to return the Argentinean to the club, but this is prevented by financial restrictions on the salary cap of the team’s players.
