Messi admitted he really wanted to return to Barcelona after PSG

When Lionel Messi's contract with PSG was nearing its end, the media reported on the legend's desire to return to Barcelona. And this information was true.

Details: In an interview with Simplemente Futbol, Messi confessed that he indeed aspired to return to his hometown club.

Quote:

“I wanted to return to Barcelona. I wanted to go back to where I've always wanted to be. But it turned out to be impossible again... Then my family and I decided to move to Miami. It was clear to me that I didn't want to be in any other team in Europe except Barcelona.”

Lionel Messi left Barcelona in the summer of 2021 because La Liga restrictions prevented him from renewing his contract with the club.

Reminder: It was previously reported that Messi is close to extending his contract with Inter Miami.
