Former Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas recently revealed Lionel Messi could return to Barcelona if the club is open to it.

Messi is regarded by many as the best of all time, and is indeed Barcelona’s greatest ever player.

Messi won 10 La Liga titles with Barcelona, the Copa del Rey seven times and the Champions League four times.

Messi scored 672 goals in 778 games for Barcelona but ended his 21-year association with Barcelona by joining PSG in 2021.

Messi’s current deal is due to expire in 2023, but PSG want to extend it for at least a further year until 2024.

According to reports, Barcelona president Joan Laporta is working behind the scenes to ensure Messi returns to the Camp Nou.

Laporta said: “I feel indebted to Leo Messi. I would like him to end his career in a Barca shirt, and be applauded at all the stadiums.

“I feel partially responsible for how things ended, and I feel that this is a temporary end and that we will make this dream a reality. At least that is the dream.”
