There are many factors that linked Lionel Messi, the star of Paris Saint-Germain, to his return to Barcelona, ​​the last of which was his ignoring of the squad for the season in the French Football League, which was announced on Sunday.

Messi also faced public criticism and boos in the wake of the Champions League defeat to Real Madrid last March, which he was not used to throughout his career.

There were also reports that the Argentina captain was unhappy in Paris as his family struggled to adjust to life in the French capital.

All of this sparked speculation that Messi may not complete his contract with Saint-Germain, as he has one season left, in addition to the option to extend until 2024.

Jorge, Messi's father and agent, responded, during a television interview, to a question about his son wearing the Barcelona shirt again, and he opened the door wide by saying, "I hope (it will happen) one day."
