Laporta confirmed that a return to competitiveness is not currently possible, saying: “His departure was not as we wanted, but out of respect for Messi and the club, it is not appropriate to raise unrealistic expectations,” according to global sports websites.
Laporta expressed his surprise at Messi’s visit accompanied by his colleague Rodrigo De Paul, adding: “I did not know he would come, but Camp Nou is his home. It was a spontaneous visit in the spirit of Barcelona, after a dinner with some friends.”
The Argentine national team star Lionel Messi expressed yesterday, Tuesday, his wish to spend the rest of his career entirely at the Spanish club Barcelona. Western media outlets reported yesterday evening that Inter Miami’s Argentine forward Lionel Messi expressed his intention to return to the Catalan city someday, but he has not yet decided on participating with the Argentine national team.
The Spanish newspaper “Sport” conducted an interview with Messi, in which he said, “I always feel nostalgic for the past, and I get many emotions whenever I hear anything about Barcelona, they are amazing memories.”
The Argentine national team star emphasized, “I am seriously looking forward to returning to Barcelona, I miss the city and the club a lot, and my wife, my colleagues, and I always talk about it, about the idea of living there again, and I am also looking forward to returning to Camp Nou after its reopening.”
It is worth mentioning that Lionel Messi defended the colors for 17 years, having made his first appearance with Barcelona’s first team in 2004 before leaving the club in 2021 to join the French team Paris Saint-Germain, after winning many titles and achieving a series of exceptional records.
The Argentine player joined Inter Miami in July 2023, on a free transfer after the end of his European journey, and his initial contract duration was two and a half years.
