'BOMB SHELL' IN SIGHT: Leo Messi wants to return to FC Barcelona!

Will Leo Messi wear the FC Barcelona jersey again in the future? That does not seem too clear; however, the door to this option is not completely closed. Since the Argentine left the azulgrana club in 2021, there has been constant speculation about his return, with 'La Pulga' being a legend of the club (top scorer, assistant, and player with the most matches), who still maintains an interesting sporting level and undoubtedly deserves to be welcomed back by a fanbase that supported him during the 17 seasons he wore the azulgrana jersey.

At the same time, it is undeniable that FC Barcelona and its supporters seem to have been left with a 'thorn in their side' due to the absence of an appropriate farewell for Leo Messi, as in 2021 his goodbye was limited to an emotional speech at a press conference with only the presence of his close family circle, teammates, club staff, and media. Something unworthy of a player with his 'weight' in the history of the institution.

Leo Messi's 'last dance' with FC Barcelona, is it an increasingly real option?

However, a new option seems to arise to see Leo Messi again in the FC Barcelona jersey and, therefore, give him a farewell in line with his legacy at the club. Journalist Álex Candal from 'DSports' has revealed information about a possible return of the Argentine to the azulgrana team in the near future.

The renowned Venezuelan journalist asserts that, according to words from Leo Messi, "he could not leave football without first playing at the new Camp Nou". This statement aligns with the affection that the '10' of the 'Albiceleste' has expressed towards FC Barcelona on several occasions, demonstrating his close following of the current project led by Hansi Flick.

Scenarios to evaluate regarding the possible arrival of Leo Messi at FC Barcelona

However, in light of this new possibility of Leo Messi returning to FC Barcelona, it is necessary to consider all scenarios involving his arrival at the club. It is also important to remember that the Rosario native still has a contract with Inter Miami until December 31, 2025, which would require negotiating with the American team for a possible transfer to the culé team, perhaps through a loan.

On the other hand, at one point the idea was also raised that Leo Messi could return to FC Barcelona at the end of the 2025-26 season, after renewing his contract with Inter Miami until December 31, 2026. The Catalan team could take advantage of the MLS break, which runs from December to March, to consider adding the Argentine legend to their squad in the winter market and have his services during the last months of the season, allowing him to then rejoin 'Las Garzas' with full competitive rhythm.

Now we will have to wait with anticipation for the outcome of this case, as while the return of Leo Messi makes more than one romantic dream awake, it is evident that a series of conditions must be met for this to materialize. At the same time, it is crucial to evaluate how Hansi Flick would fit the world champion into his starting eleven, which poses a tactical challenge for FC Barcelona when considering the option of having their great legend have a final dance with the culé club.
