THE CHAMPIONS, DECISIVE FACTOR
The factor that would condition Leo Messi's return to Barça
After two seasons in Paris, the return of Lionel Messi begins to be seen as a real possibility. FC Barcelona works tirelessly to achieve it, but there are many factors involved in the operation
The future of Lionel Messi continues in the air, although from the FC Barcelona have manifested publicly his interest in that it return and that from the Paris Saint-Germain continue negotiating with the surroundings of the footballer. Has two alternatives for the season 2023-2024, because yes well has received millionaire offers from United States and Saudi Arabia, his intention is to continue competing to the maximum level in Europe.
In the City Condal has grown the optimism regarding the return of Messi, after two years of his traumatic exit, but to day of today have not presented him an offer. The culés are expecting that it was validated, by LaLiga, his plan of economic feasibility that allow to put of full in the operation. This, that is the more conditioning, but also the decision of the UEFA on the participation or no of the culés in the next edition of the Champions League.
Play the Champions League, key
Leo Messi expects to win the Champions League before withdrawing or leave to play in Europe. It has not achieved it from the season 2014-2015, in the Barcelona rows, and with his arrival to the PSG expected to achieve it. However, it has fallen in two consecutive years in eighth of final (against Real Madrid and Bayern of Munich) and the dream has seen increasingly 'impossible' to fulfil. It will try it, again, the next year and wants to do it in a team that him of guarantees.
In Paris is conscious that it will be able to go back to try it, but in the City Condal there is not security, at least for now, that they go to play the Champions League in the next campaign. After the UEFA decided to initiate an investigation by the 'case Negreira', by the payment of the Barcelona of seven million euros to the exvicepresidente of the Technical Committee of Referees during almost two decades, the participation has been in 'will see'. For Leo Messi is a key factor and would finish being the big 'conditioning' of his return.
Confidence in the FC Barcelona with the UEFA
The uncertainty on the decision of the UEFA will keep to the end of season. It is not a secret for anybody that the organism is in authority to sanction to the clubs before it exist a sentence by part of a judge, and is a point that concerns enormously to the FC Barcelona. However, it has existed some optimism in this last week after Joan Laporta kept a meeting with Aleksander Ceferin to explain him the position of the club.
The blaugrana understand and trust that there will be a sanction for the season 2023-2024 and that they will be able to contest, without problems, the Champions League. It is missing the confirmation of the UEFA and, seemingly, will not arrive so prompt. Of this will depend, surely, the expectations of the culés of face to the next course, because of the participation 'depend' the forecast of income and a sinfín of operations, the one of Messi between them.
