Lionel Messi said goodbye to FC Barcelona with tears in his eyes in the summer of 2021.

Although it seemed like the Argentine's history in Barcelona was over, recently there have been more and more rumors that one of the best footballers of all time could return to Catalonia next summer.

The club's vice president Eduard Romeu also spoke about it, stating that such a return would be financially possible.

"Messi's return next summer would be financially possible because he would arrive as a free agent.

However, the decision will depend on our coaching staff and the player himself. I do not make such decisions, but I can confirm that such a transfer would be possible," - the vice president of Barca said in an interview with Catalan radio.
