Javier Tebas, La Liga president, has declared that Lionel Messi will not play football at either Barcelona or PSG next season. He said the club’s financial situation would change if Messi returned to Barcelona next season. He added that it would take selling players and that the 35-year-old would have to bring down his salary to almost nothing.
Messi’s deal at PSG will terminate at the end of the season, and nothing has been done to lengthen his stay at Parc des Princes. There have been talks about a return to Barcelona two years after he left Spain.
The Argentine World Cup winner could return to Barcelona as a free agent; he will likely expect a huge wage.
The 7-time Ballon d’Or winner is receiving €34 million in wages this season at PSG, and Tebas believes the French side can no longer afford that.
