Barcelona and Leo Messi did not finish well. The Argentine star’s departure from the Camp Nou was very painful, and no one would have imagined that he would arrive in this way. That’s why there has been a change of attitude in recent months, trying to redirect the situation and trying to sign him this season as well. That was not possible, but now it has been confirmed once again that Messi will play one last match for Barcelona.
Negotiations between Barcelona and Messi
Messi’s sporting career is declining and he is no longer expected to play at the top level in Europe. For this reason, this stage at Inter Miami may be the last in his professional career. But he will play again in Barcelona and wear the Barcelona shirt. As was known in recent months, a tribute match will be held.
Namely, the negotiations between FC Barcelona and Messi’s environment have been confirmed with various meetings in 2023. Messi’s father was the contact person. Little by little, the details of this match became known, in which Messi may or may not play as the protagonist.
Barcelona’s farewell to Messi has been confirmed
In the past hours, Barcelona’s football district director, Deco, confirmed in statements to Lance newspaper that Barcelona will organize a farewell match for Messi. This will be when the new Camp Nou stadium is actually opened, becoming one of the first big matches in the new stadium. “I think it will be a farewell match, but maybe in the new stadium when it is ready. He will always be the biggest idol in the club’s history. The club had great role models, like Cruyff and Ronaldo, but he might just be that.” The biggest of all… He will definitely play a farewell match in Barcelona, but when that will be, we do not know. He is playing, and we hope he will play for many more years, because people who love football, like him, will be happy to see him happy,” Deco said.
This means that it has become official that Messi will play a match at the Camp Nou when business is finished. There is no confirmed date, but it will be at the end of 2024 or already towards 2025. It could be a friendly match against Inter Miami, since a few weeks ago some leaders of the American team dropped this possibility since Inter Miami. They will face each other.
A friendly match still has to wait. Messi will receive the honor he deserves and fans will be able to bid farewell to the best footballer of all time. A farewell that has been postponed longer than expected in time, but which is already known to be a farewell that will come true. Leo Messi has to say goodbye to the Coolers and the Coolers have to say goodbye to Leo Messi.
