Lionel Messi has reportedly made a request to Al-Hilal, a Saudi Arabian team, to postpone his anticipated move until 2024, according to sources at GOAL. This development has sparked speculations about a potential reunion between Messi and Barcelona.
On Monday, representatives from Messi's camp held a meeting with a Saudi delegation, where they asked for the delay in his move to the Pro League. The Saudi representatives were taken aback by this news and informed Messi's team that their offer next year would differ from the current €500 million per year (£435m/$541m) deal on the table.
This decision by Messi comes shortly after his father, Jorge Messi, openly expressed his desire for a return to Barcelona.
Moreover, La Liga has approved Barcelona's financial viability plan, clearing the path for the legendary player to make a comeback. A meeting between the two parties took place earlier today, potentially leading to a deal. It has already been confirmed that Messi will be leaving Paris Saint-Germain. Jorge Messi acknowledged that his son could possibly play for Barcelona again next year, stating that "Messi would love to return."
While Messi seems to be moving closer to a return to his former club, there is still the possibility of him considering other destinations. Inter Miami and several Premier League teams have also been linked to the Argentine superstar.
