The 41-year-old Hassle returned to Barca as first-team manager at his own expense, while Alves, 38, also accepted a basic salary and returned to his beloved Barca. What makes the outside world curious is whether Messi has also thought about returning to Barca? On November 19, Spain's Onda Cero broke the news on the show: as long as La Porta is there, Messi will not return to Barca.
This summer, Barca unexpectedly announced that they would not renew Messi's contract. The 34-year-old Messi tearfully bid farewell to Camp Nou and moved to Paris Saint-Germain. At first, Laporta vowed to keep Messi, but the sudden 180-degree turn caught everyone, including Messi, off guard. The gap between Messi and Laporta also arises.
After Xavi and Alves return to Barca, will Messi return to Barca one day in the future? Radio Zero's sports moniker, Alfredo Martinez, gave a clear answer:
As long as Laporta is president of the Barça club, Messi will not return to Barca. Even in his dreams, Messi never thought about it (returning to Barca).
Alfredo Martinez is a Barça reporter/presenter for Radio Zero and knows the inside story of Barca. As early as September, Martinez broke the news that the Barca hierarchy did not trust Ronald Koeman and was ready to ask Xavi to return to coach, and this news finally became a fact. Martinez also confirmed on the show that Alves' annual salary at Barcelona is 155,000 euros. Martinez's source, relatively reliable.
There is indeed a gap and contradiction between Messi and La Porta, which Messi personally confirmed. At the end of October, Messi said in an exclusive interview with the Daily Sports Newspaper: "I accept Barca's request for more than 50% salary cut, and I am willing to provide more help to Barca." However, Laporta's words hurt me, which made me start to doubt that my ideas and practices were not worth it. ”
Laporta has said he wants Messi to "play for Barca for free". Such remarks have hurt Messi a lot. Laporta used Messi's influence to win outside support during the Barca presidency campaign; took advantage of Messi's salary cut and appeal to sign strong reinforcements such as Depay to renew the team's salary cut. However, Barca kicked Messi away, and Laporta's approach made it difficult for Messi to forgive.
Although leaving Barcelona will have regrets and pains, messi today, in Paris Saint-Germain, is very happy, with good brother Neymar, family company, a more relaxed environment, and happy and harmonious.
