Barcelona Professional Lionel Messi Urges PSG Star’s Comeback to Barça

The FC Barcelona can probably already plan for the championship celebration.

The Catalans beat arch-rivals Real Madrid 2-1 in the Clásico. Barça are now 12 points clear in LaLiga. Hard to imagine that you can still take this. Barça seems too stable for that this season.

Real defeated, the championship almost in the bag – it’s going for Barça in the league! But for absolute happiness, something is still missing: the return of Lionel Messi!

Sergi Roberto demanded this right after the Clásico: “I hope Messi comes back. We’re waiting for him. He doesn’t deserve to be treated like he was in Paris.”

The right-back alluded to the fan protests against the Argentine world champion. In Paris Saint-Germain’s home defeat against Stade Rennes (0:2), the superstar striker was whistled at by the PSG ultras. This action was announced after the defeat against FC Bayern in the round of 16 of the Champions League. For the Ultras, Messi symbolizes the wrong path of the club.

Ahead of the Rennes game, an Ultra member told Mundo Deportivo: “We’re going to boo Messi on Sunday. His salary is too high in relation to what he does on the pitch.”

Roberto reacted with incomprehension: “It is incomprehensible to me. He (Messi, editor’s note) is having a good season, scoring a lot of goals, putting on a lot.” that a player at this level is not treated like that.”

Roberto promised: “Here we will treat him very well when he comes. We’re waiting for Leo, we want him at Barça.”

Now it’s up to Messi to make a choice about his return. The fact is: the Argentine’s contract with PSG expires at the end of the season. His future in Paris is uncertain, so far both sides have not been able to agree on an extension.

“But we don’t want to talk too much about the subject because it’s not me, the president, the coach or whoever who decides, but he (Messi) who cares,” said Roberto.

So at Barça, the door is wide open for Messi…
