How old is Lewandowski but he is still scoring more and more goals. Messi can still play in Laliga, if he ever made the switch back to Barcelona. Inter Miami won't be in his way, I believe he Messi will see out his contract with Inter Miami before that time. I think he signed a two year contract with them, and I believe the contract will expire at the end of the current MLS season. If you have been watching Messi recently, you will see that the Man is still playing in the top level. Messi is not going to retire in the US. If Messi is going to retire where he's more revered, I think that's going to be Barcelona. Messi can't be more revered in Miami than he is in Barcelona.
New Camp Nou, having Messi back. Am I the only one seeing that Barcelona is seeking to use Messi to generate more money more than having a high quality player. I mean Messi is one of the best players in the world and he is still good even though he is getting old and so on. A team with wise management trying to secure the future of the team for the next 10 years will try to give their players a chance to improve, recruit young talented players, not try to recruit again an old player, with respect to Messi career..
It would be great if Messi could actually play with Barcelona again. Messi is no longer young but I think he still has sufficient ability to be in La Liga, while his stamina may not be the same as before but at least he doesn't have to play the full 90 minutes, so stamina will not be a problem (there are many old players in La Liga and they still look competitive). But there is one thing on my mind, whether Barcelona can afford to pay the salary that Messi wants or whether Messi is willing to be paid whatever the amount is.
