Rafael Yuste has indicated that one of his wishes is for the trans-Andean 10 to return to defend the Barca jersey. He also revealed that the chairman, Joan Laporta, has stayed in touch with the player’s father.
Lionel Messi’s return to the Barcelona club could be closer. The Barcelona board have started to speak publicly about the Argentine’s possible return to wear the culé shirt in the coming seasons .
So indicated Rafael Yuste , sporting vice-president of Barça in full institutional act. “Leo and his family know the affection we have for them. I took part in the negotiations which at the time did not succeed, unfortunately, and I have this thorn in my head “, he began by saying in relation to the subject.
“I would love for him to come back and I’m sure many fans share my words . I believe that the stories of life must end well and that’s why we have contact with Messi, of course “, he added.
Then he elaborated on his remarks by noting that “I think it’s the most natural thing. When you are in love with someone, you lose contact but you want to continue to be in love. And I think Leo is also in love with Barca and the city of Barcelona. I think fate will make it possible. Let’s see if we can have Leo at Barcelona again “, he insisted.
In any case, the manager explained that he did not want to come into conflict with PSG, the current club where Lionel Messi plays “because he is his player”.
He also indicated that they will use the time until the next transfer book opens in Europe to work with the Spanish tournament president, Javier Tebas on some issues that could give the signing some durability.
“There are two months left during which we can work with Tebas and present the feasibility, cash flow and revenue plan. SIf so, because Leo is a PSG player and if all the conditions are met, how would Leo agree to come back? “explained Yuste.
“You already know the conversations. The president was with Leo’s father, Jorge, and there is a good relationship. There is no plan of attack. If it comes out, it will come out because fate comes back where it should…, we’ll see . But now it’s difficult for me to talk about Leo because I don’t want PSG to misinterpret my words,” the coach concluded.
PSG accelerates renewal
Lionel Messi and PSG have a link in force for the next three months, which the Parisian club intends to extend for a year. The French were happy with what was shown by the Argentine and started to speed up the talks for the contract extension.
But at this point, Messi is also looking for a project that will take him closer to lifting the Champions League and in this respect the club have disappointed him in recent seasons, suffering early eliminations against Real Madrid and Bayern. Munich.
In this way, each party will have to evaluate its possibilities to reach an agreement that is profitable in the sporting and economic field.
