"Messi ultimately chose to move to the United States and join Miami International to play football, a decision that left many Barcelona fans disappointed.
Messi's departure from Barcelona was never a pleasant affair. Prior to his departure, everyone hoped that Messi would play for Barcelona until retirement, as achieving a one-club career in the sports world is a rare accomplishment. However, Messi had a falling out with Barcelona's management, leading to their parting ways. Yet, when Messi moved to Paris Saint-Germain to play, he discovered that the fans there were not as supportive as the Barcelona fans, and there were increasing jeers. It made him realize that sometimes it's best to be at home.
With a heavy heart, Messi's departure from Paris Saint-Germain was expected, and Barcelona's desire to bring him back was well-known. However, practical considerations prevented Barcelona from re-signing Messi. The club was facing financial difficulties, and Messi's salary was exorbitant, to the extent that even if Messi was willing to take a pay cut, Barcelona couldn't afford it. Therefore, Barcelona ultimately had to give up on bringing Messi back, and Messi announced his move to the United States to join Miami International.
During his press conference, Messi also expressed that he didn't want Barcelona to make sacrifices to accommodate his return, such as releasing or lowering the salaries of current players. Although he genuinely wanted to return to Barcelona and missed the fans there greatly, he chose a different path. He hoped that Barcelona would have a smooth future and win more championships, and he would, like other Barcelona fans, always support the club." |
