Why did Messi pick Inter Maimi over Barcelona. Why? American clubs is a place where players go to retire to end their career and be either a coach or a football pundit like Thierry Henry. The only player I know who moved there and moved out successfully to the Italian league is Ibrahimovic who just retired from football. America is not suitable for Messi , he is going to fad into oblivion. What more can I say than wish him the best in the future.
Messi knows how he will end his professional football career. and returning to Barcelona was not the right choice for him. Messi doesn't think about money, but there are rumors that there are problems with people at the club. so he refused to return to Barcelona.
whether this will be a controversy for Barcelona fans or not. but Messi is already a part of Barcelona's football history. however the world recognizes it.
Messi made the decision he would play the next season in Inter maimi instead of the Catalan club (Barcelona) because there are several reasons behind Messi's failure to take a U-turn to Barcelona. Messi and his family love to play for Barcelona but due to financial problems of Catalan changed their mind. After several conversations between Messi's father and Barcelona president Johan Laporta at the end of the conversation they decided that the club will sign Messi at this transfer market but that would take time. On the other hand, Messi didn't wait no more for Barcelona. Messi has only remain two spots to choose between them MLS or SPL & Messi has no interest to play in Saudi Arabia he would love to play in their own continent America which has more fame than the Saudi Arabia leagues. So that is the reason why Messi chooses to pick Inter Maimi over Barcelona.
