President of FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta made the rounds of the news of the club of Catalonia. For RAC1the leader of the Blaugrana spoke in particular about a return of Lionel Messi and the next winter transfer window.
Joan Laporta is no exception. At each speech, the president of FC Barcelona must respond to the possibility of a return of Lionel Messi. In a final interview with RAC1, the boss of the Catalonian club has spoken out about the Argentine striker from Paris Saint-Germain. While once again opening the door to a return of the former Barcelonan, Joan Laporta refuses to get carried away.
Messi? “We’ll see”
“With players like Messi, the Barça brand is gaining strength and it is true that he is still identified with Barça. We’ll see for the return, things are complicated and he’s at PSG and I wouldn’t want to get into an argument with them. I wouldn’t want to have any controversy out of respect for Messi and out of respect for the club.” Repatriating the “Pulga” will be all the more difficult to conclude in the event of an extension in the tricolor capital, desired by the Parisian leaders. For now, the Rosario native’s lease expires next June, with an option for an additional twelve months.
Joan Laporta ha dicho en @rac1 esto sobre el possible regreso de Messi al Barcelona la proxima temporada:

Eliminated in the group stage of the Champions League and eager to compete with Real Madrid for the title of Spanish champion, will Barça take action in January? Joan Laporta is considering it very seriously, but the Catalans are facing an economic problem that drags on. “We are looking to overcome the factors that affect Financial Fair Play to be able to sign if the coach and sporting director want. At the moment, we are with a negative fair play that we would have to compensate for in order to be able to sign.
