why Laporta wants Messi back

Can the summer 2021 soap opera become the summer 2022 soap opera as well? 1 year after leaving FC Barcelona, ​​Leo Messi is still the subject of rumors of a return to Catalonia, and this time it’s Sport which explains that Joan Laporta wants to bring back the Argentinian. The Spanish media announce that it is a request from Xavi himself and that the club president does not see it as something unachievable.

Before seeing Messi wear the Barça shirt again, there are first injuries to treat. The seven-time Ballon d’Or had agreed to all the efforts requested by the club last summer to extend but the Blaugranas finally decided to let him go free. This episode had been difficult for the Argentinian who did not expect to leave his house. Although on the Barcelona side it is considered that his departure was a necessary evil to rebuild on a sound basis, his return is now wanted. Laporta believes that opening the doors of his lifelong club to him is a gesture that will not leave the winger indifferent and the new signings represent proof of the regained competitiveness. Even though he has superior offers financially, Messi ‘will make his decision with the heart’ for the Catalan leaders. Barça therefore think they can convince La Pulga to return “home” but will not launch an offensive without being 100% ready, announces Sport.
