The delay in renewing Lionel Messi’s contract with Paris Saint-Germain made Barcelona fans dream of his return. At some point, everyone in Barcelona continues to feel Leo is theirs and they want him back.
Those who had an iota of hope that the disagreement between Leo and Paris Saint-Germain related to a legendary return, lost it after listening to Matias Messi, the older brother of the best player in history, who explained via Twitch why Leo did not return to the club.
And Matias said in statements, for which he then apologized: “For Messi to return to Barcelona, Juan Laporta must first leave the club. And let’s not doubt that if there is anyone who has learned to move strategically in the media, it is Messi.
Let us exclude the coincidence in his brother’s statements, and this is enough to clarify Leo’s message to the entire Barcelona world: “I will return if Laporta leaves.” That could happen in June 2026, when the current president’s term expires.
The relationship is completely broken with Laporta, there is no way Messi will be back with him as president and although he is missing for the next elections, in Barcelona they already know that Messi will sign for another year at PSG, then he will be free in June 2024, a year before the elections take place in Barcelona. . It wouldn’t be strange if opposition candidates start associating with Liu over the next year.
Messi is doing well at PSG, but Barcelona is his home, he wants to come back and the whole world knows that. Matthias has already sent the message, if he leaves Laporta, Leo plans to return.
When does Laporta leave? In June 2026 if he does not win the elections … then yes, Messi has a possible return date that also coincides with the end of the 2026 World Cup, which he will reach at the age of 39.
