Lionel Messi returns to Barcelona? Inter Miami’s coach addresses the matter
MLS has a very different schedule than the rest of the leagues around the world. As the regular season ends in two weeks, several players look for a loan move in order to keep playing until the start of the next campaign.
For this reason, there are several rumors circulating that Lionel Messi might consider a return to Barcelona through a loan move. According to reports, the striker is looking for a more favorable farewell with his former team compared to his departure a year ago.
While the Blaugranas are working in a plan to clear space in their salary cap to sign Messi, Inter Miami’s coach has given some insight into this matter. Gerardo Martino was asked about this possible loan move, and his reaction was very intruguing.
“Is he (Lionel Messi) going for fun? Maybe he’s going to visit Barcelona,” Martino said during his post-game press conference on Saturday. “Other than that, I don’t know anything else about it.”
