I don't think so, because in this case I still feel that if Barcelona had solid finances and didn't have financial problems like they have in the last few seasons they would definitely try to bring Messi back but because they are aware that something like that is impossible so Like it or not, they have to be reluctant, especially with the conditions of Messi's salary and price, it is clear that it will be very difficult for Barcelona if they continue to impose their will. Currently they have gone their own way and I don't think we need to discuss things like this anymore because in the end they have become the past and now Barcelona only has to focus on returning to performance and improving financial management so that it doesn't get destroyed like the previous 2 seasons.

I think it's time for Barcelona fans to forget about Messi's return to the club as a player, only if only to work in the structure of the club after the end of an active career. Xavi Hernandez has already successfully built a new model of Barcelona's game without the need for Messi's presence, he has already achieved quite successful results and therefore it is not necessary to break it all for the nostalgic return of his former idol. And I think the ratio of price (salary) and quality of the current Messi is no longer optimal for Barcelona, but on the contrary will be an unaffordable burden.

True, if they are good fans then they will be wise enough to address the conditions that are happening for Barcelona now and not always hope that Messi and Barcelona can reunite.
They must be aware about Barcelona's finances will not be able to handle the problem if Messi returns to Barcelona at this time because we know with Messi's huge salary then it is clearly impossible. Although there will definitely be a return of lost sponsorship, it is still pointless if in the end with Messi at Barcelona, they have to let go of some players who are currently very good in terms of cooperation as a relief for their Financial.
Although Messi is no longer at Barcelona, he will still be considered a Barcelona legend and nothing has changed from that.
