Will Lionel Messi Return To FC Barcelona?

Messi's recent visit to the revamped Camp Nou sparked a lot of rumours. But the Inter Miami star had penned a new contract until 2028 and is expected to honour his deal with the MLS side.

Now, Barcelona's presidential candidate Victor Font reiterated that if he comes to power, he would try to reunite the Barcelona supporters with Messi.
