Football: Carlo Ancelotti would be happy to see Leo Messi defend again the colors of FC Barcelona
Carlo Ancelotti would be happy to see the former FC Barcelona player, Lionel Messi join the Catalan club, “for the good of Spanish football”. This statement from the current coach of Real Madrid adds to the many speculations surrounding the future of the Argentine prodigy, particularly his potential return to the Blaugranas.
Indeed, when the reporters asked Carlo Ancelotti, about a potential switch of Messi, he answered: «Messi can do whatever he wants and Barcelona too. It’s not an issue for me. I like him as a player. For Spanish football it could be nice to have him. But it’s a matter for Messi and Barcelona».
The contract of Leonel Messi runs down at Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain. The legendary Argentina international will become a free agent, given he doesn’t agree any new terms in France, with his current club.
The fact that the world champion was seen last weekend in the Catalunya capital raised in some, hope for a potential return to FC Barcelona and in others, curiosity about what will become of Leo.
But before Barcelona can consider welcoming Messi back onto their books, it has to do much work, especially concerning the financial struggles of the club.
However, there is a chance that the 2022 World Cup winner – who hit 672 goals during his previous spell in Spain – could find himself in familiar surroundings again next season as he prepares to lock horns with Real once more.
