Speculations surround Messi’s potential return to Barcelona
Lionel Messi’s father, Jorge Messi has disclosed he would prefer the return of his son to Barcelona someday.
The Barcelona hero shocked the football world by completing a move to PSG last August.
Since then, so many excuses have been made over the Argentine’s off-form performance.
His father has now made his position known saying, “I hope it [happens], some day,” when asked by Twitch channel Jijantes FC, about the prospect of his son playing for Barcelona before his career is over.
At Barca, the 34-year old scored 672 goals in 777 appearances.
Recall that Messi’s former team-mate Dani Alves also called for the playmaker to ‘return home’ to Barcelona last month.
Unfortunately, PSG reportedly plan to keep the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner for another year.
Messi has scored just six Ligue 1 goals in the current campaign. However, his form recently rose as he scored a brace against Montpellier on Saturday, May 14.
He also has 13 assists to his name in League 1 in the ongoing season.
