Lionel Messi speaks out on future amid Barcelona return links | OneFootball

Former Barcelona star Lionel Messi has on Friday spoken out on his immediate plans for the future.

The name of Argentine icon Messi has of course returned to the forefront of the headlines in Catalunya’s capital across the week to date.

This comes after journalist Alex Candal – who broke the news regarding the attacker’s plans to sign with Inter Miami – dropped the bombshell that Messi has set his sights on a return to Barcelona:

“Who was the first one to say that Leo Messi was joining Inter Miami? Me… or not? And now I’m telling you: He’s coming back to Barcelona.”

Speaking to the media late this week, it therefore came as little surprise when the subject of Messi’s plans beyond the summer were put to the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner himself.

This comes ahead of the upcoming expiration of his contract in Miami.

Messi, however, was quick to assure that he is yet to come to a decision on his intentions for next season, in explaining:

“My future? I feel good now and I’m just enjoying every moment of my career. I’m enjoying club, games, teammates, family, friends… I’m not anticipating things. I’m just loving and enjoying the moment.”
