Goal: Lionel Messi asks Al-Hilal to postpone transfer until 2024/25 season
It became known about the request of the Argentine striker Lionel Messi to postpone the transfer to the Saudi Al-Hilal. It is reported by Goal.
According to the publication, the striker wants to postpone the transition to the Saudi team for the 2024/2025 season, because he hopes to return to Barcelona. It is noted that the representatives of the player have already discussed this issue with members of the management of Al-Hilal.
On June 5, striker Jorge’s father spoke about his son’s desire to play for the Spanish club again. “Messi wants to return to Barcelona and I would like him to return. Such a scenario is possible,” journalist Tony Juanmarti quoted him as saying.
On June 3, Paris Saint-Germain announced the departure of Messi at the end of the 2022/2023 season. In addition to Al-Hilal and Barcelona, the American Inter Miami, owned by David Beckham, claims to be a football player.
Messi has been playing for PSG since 2021. His contract with the Parisians ran until June 2023 with the option of a one-season extension. Prior to that, the striker played for Barcelona throughout his career. As part of the Catalans, he won the Spanish championship ten times and won the Champions League four times.
