Return to Barca would’ve been great but would not have benefited either Barca is in a lot of hot water and Messi didn’t want that distraction. Barca is also not in a position financially to offer Messi a lucrative deal and neither on a position to compete for another Champions League trophy. He has nothing else to prove in Football and a change of scenery is what he needs right now, in a club and league where he will be respected and the value he brings to Miami and MLS. Also a perfect place to be to build a whole new fan base building up to the World Cup to feel right at home. Not to mention that the deal would earn him more in the long run and will present him with new opportunities from US brands . I think this is best for Football. I’m looking forward to make more trips to Miami from Summer 😍
Agreed. I think the Barcelona return was a romantic idea, certainly, but probably not in the best interests of either at this point. As you say, he has achieved everything in European and world football, so this is something different. It's exciting. I also look forward to watching him play in Miami - that will be fun!
