      Barca never wanted him back.

      They will ask other players to accept pay cut for Messi, then refuse to sign Messi at the last moment.

      Not really, if he so selfless he should've taken a reduced salary so that the other players don't have to take pay cuts, or at least the pay cuts would be smaller, he's making a clear financial decision because he knows that his last chance of a major payday , he chose USA instead of Saudi Arabia to avoid the backlash while still getting a big contract. He might be the arguably the best player in the history of the football, but he's not a Saint that's for sure.

      I mean he has offshore bank accounts to dodge paying tax. I'd say purposefully not paying tax when you have hundreds of millions overshadows all his footballing "goodwill" for sure. He also stands to make a lot more money playing in MLS compared to Barca as well through sponsorship deals and being in ads in the States.

I can respect that. I was bawling my eyes out when he talked about one day going back to Barca and wanting a proper farewell. He deserves it so much. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us Leo, we’ll always love you in Barcelona. I’ll follow you to to edge of the Earth. I hope they’ll treat you well in Miami.

I hope someday before he decides to hang up his boots once and for all, we can bring him without complications or compromises and give him the farewell he deserves.

    Honestly, a good decision. Messi knows that if he goes back his influence will be too big and negatively impact Barcelona. Love to see that he just wants the best for Barca even if it means that he himself can't play there anymore. Can't wait to see how he does in the MLS, might even get a chance to meet the GOAT

      He just want to meet his best commentator, Ray Hudson.🤣
