Leo Messi Announces Decision to Sign with Inter Miami

Argentine soccer player Leo Messi has announced that he will be signing with Inter Miami of the American Soccer League (MLS). This decision came after he ruled out the options of signing with Saudi Al-Hilal or returning to his former team, Barcelona. Messi made this announcement during a joint interview with Barcelona newspapers, Mundo Deportivo and Sport, at his Parisian home.

Reasons Behind Messi’s Decision

According to Messi, he made the decision to leave Europe and sign with Inter Miami in order to get out of the spotlight and focus more on his family. He also found out that in order to return to Barcelona, the club would have had to sell players or lower their salaries, and he didn’t want to be a part of that process. Messi wanted to find something new and have a bit of peace of mind, but he also admitted that his family was excited about the move, even though they were sad to leave Barcelona.

Messi’s Communication with Barcelona’s President and Xavi Hernandez

Messi said that he spoke very little with Barcelona’s president, Joan Laporta, and only had one or two conversations with him. However, he did have more communication with Xavi Hernandez, which he believed was good for the team. Regarding the economic issue, Messi stated that it was never a problem or obstacle for him and that they never talked about a contract.

Possibility of Returning to Barcelona

Messi stated that he would like to be close to the club and settle in Barcelona in the future. He hopes that one day he can contribute something to the club and help them because he loves the club and appreciates the love he received from the people during his career.

Overall, Messi’s decision to sign with Inter Miami is a big move for the soccer community and fans are excited to see what the future holds for one of the greatest players in history.
