Fans watched the scene of Lionel Messi stepping down from Barcelona with pain. There were reports that Messi is still sad regarding having to leave FC Barcelona in 2021 and that the behavior of Laporta, the president of Barcelona, led to the star’s exit from the club.
At that time, Messi was trying to stay at his favorite club, Barcelona, but there were rumors that Laporta was withdrawing from renewing the player’s contract. Former Argentina player Sergio Aguero says that Messi was hoping that Barcelona would have renewed his contract even during the Copa America, but their response disappointed the player.
“When the Copa America was going on, Messi was holding the Barcelona jersey in his hand. Every three days he would say that Barcelona had renewed the contract and that you would have to take a photo with me when the official announcement was made. But every time we prepare, they say not yet,’ Aguero said.
Messi has achieved many records for Barca. After Messi’s departure, Barca tried to recapture their glory days, but the club failed to live up to expectations. Reports surfaced that Messi was returning to Barca following his contract with PSG expired last June. It is reported that Messi was interested in playing with the Blaugrana, but the hurdles in the signing were holding him back.
At the same time, Messi said that Barcelona have not yet sent him official offer letters to sign with the club.
He had heard that Barcelona would have to sell many players and cut the wages of the players to get him back and he was not interested in that. Messi also said that he did not want to go through the difficulties he faced earlier in Barca.
Messi, who left Europe and moved to America, is performing well. The player has so far accounted for five goals and one assist in the three matches he has played for Inter Miami.
The 36-year-old is getting noticed for his performance and goal contribution as soon as he started playing in MLS. If this performance continues, Messi does not need much time to become Inter Miami’s top goal scorer, according to football experts.
Messi, who scored one goal in his debut and two goals in the remaining two matches, can become Miami’s all-time leading scorer if he scores 24 goals.
