Inter Miami superstar, Lionel Messi, has admitted that he desired to return to Barcelona, but it did not eventually work out.

Messi was keen to return to the LaLiga giants after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The 38-year-old, who won the tournament with Argentina, eventually left Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent for the Major League Soccer, MLS.

“I had the intention of returning to Barcelona and being able to go back to a place I always wanted to be, but it wasn’t possible again,” Messi told Simplemente Fútbol.

“After that, it (deciding on a new club) became a family decision. The fact that we won the World Cup also had a big impact.

“I was clear that I didn’t want to be at another team in Europe, I didn’t want to go to any of them.

Messi wasat Barca for 17 seasons, winning a total of 35 trophies, including ten (10) Laliga titles and four (4) Champions League titles.

At Inter Miami, he has lifted two trophies – the 2023 Leagues Cup and the 2024 MLS Supporters’ Shield.
