A city is waiting for the Messi (as)!
Hundreds of fans wanted to meet Lionel Messi (34) yesterday at Le Bourget Airport and at the Prinzenpark Stadium in Paris. Everything was ready for the superstar leaving Barça after 21 years. Only one thing was missing until the evening: Messi himself!
The Argentine is said to be sitting on packed suitcases at home in Barcelona. It seems only a matter of time before he moves to the Sheikh Club on a free transfer. However, the decisive breakthrough is still missing in the negotiations with dad and advisor Jorge (63).

In the Champions League, Real (also with Roberto Carlos) failed in the four years that Beckham was there, three times in the last sixteen and once in the quarter-finals. The Galactics also won the championship only once during this time (2007).
Does Messi face the same fate in Paris?
The fact is: The sheikhs around President Nasser Al-Khelaifi (47) want to win the premier class with all their might. In the past two years they have been close, losing the final against Bayern (2020) and failing in the semifinals to Man City (2021).
Now Messi should satisfy the longing for the title! But for that he first has to get on the plane to Paris …
