What will happen to Lionel Messi? His departure from PSG seems to be a done deal, and in all probability he will leave the club for free in the summer. Recently, the French news agency AFP reported that Messi’s move to Saudi Arabia to Al-Hilal is fixed. Messi’s father Jorge later denied the rumour.

Meanwhile, FC Barcelona has not given up hope of getting their prodigal son back following two years. “We’re trying everything possible to bring Messi back to Barcelona,” said Barça boss Joan Laporta following winning the championship title on Sunday evening.

Laporta on Messi deal: “We want Leo — we will not offer crazy figures for that or any other deal. We’ll try to make things work with viability plan, waiting for the approval”. ???????????????? #FCB

But the situation is not easy. Spain’s league boss Javier Tebas was recently skeptical and described Messi’s possible return to Barça as “very complicated”. The Catalans might no longer afford the magic flea two years ago, the debts were too massive. Messi said goodbye in tears at the time, but said that one day they would meet once more.

Is now the time for the comeback? If it works, salaries have to be reduced and players have to be given up. Club legend Sergio Busquets has just announced his end at FC Barcelona – some took this as another indication of a Messi comeback at the Camp Nou.
