Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): The Argentine star's message on social media and his presence on Spotify Nou Camp have caused rumors about Lionel Messi's possible return to Barcelona to reach their peak once again.
Four years after his emotional departure from Barca on August 5, Messi took advantage of the international break to visit the renovation process of the Spotify Nou Camp stadium; a stadium that reminds of the glorious days and bitter and sweet memories of his career. This action has once again revived the hope of Barcelona fans for the return of their beloved legend.
However, the biggest obstacle to such a return is Messi's long-term contract with Inter Miami, which was recently extended until the end of 2028. If he sticks to his word, he will remain in the MLS until he is 41. However, there are ways for him to make a temporary return to Europe.
The current MLS season runs until December 6, and Inter Miami are on course to reach the final thanks to Messi - who recently reached 400 goals for the club - and the new season starts in mid-to-late February, meaning Messi will be out of action for two months.
Under the MLS's rules, he could join a European club on loan during that short period, a move that has previously been made by players such as Thierry Henry, Landon Donovan and David Beckham. However, La Liga's player registrations do not open until January, making a potential move more complicated.
Among the possible options, a six-month loan before the 2026 World Cup is the most logical and emotional scenario for Leo's "last dance" with the Barça shirt, although it remains to be seen whether the transfer is compatible with La Liga's financial fair play rules and the interests of Inter Miami.
Some sources close to the player have not ruled out the possibility of a clause in his contract with Inter Miami that would allow Messi to terminate it if Barcelona made an official offer, as a return to Barça was also an option when he moved to the United States.
Despite all this speculation, the most realistic scenario is that Messi will never play for Barcelona again; but the dream of him saying goodbye to the Blaugrana shirt is still alive in the hearts of millions of fans - a dream that the Argentine legend himself has never given up.
