Barcelona in Talks With La Liga Over FFP Regulations as Club Steps Up Efforts to Re-Sign Lionel Messi
Barcelona are stepping up their efforts to re-sign Lionel Messi in the summer transfer window by talking with La Liga about generating more flexibility in their Financial Fair Play ratio.
Lionel Messi has been linked with a move back to Barcelona in the summer transfer window of 2023. Messi left Barcelona in the summer of 2021 after his contract with the club had expired. He has been plying his trade for Paris Saint-Germain ever since.
Lionel Messi’s current contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires in June, and, as things stand, he will become a free agent in the summer. Messi and PSG have not yet agreed to a contract extension. That has led to speculation surrounding the future of the Argentine superstar.
According to Sky Sports, Barcelona are stepping up efforts to bring back Lionel Messi by talking with La Liga about generating more flexibility in their Financial Fair Play ratio.
The report states that Barcelona are in talks with La Liga regarding their spending limits for the next season. The idea in the minds of Barcelona is to try to pull off a sensational return to the Catalan outfit for one of the greatest footballers of all time.
Barcelona’s financial struggles are well documented, and the Catalan outfit will almost certainly have to move a number of players on in order to bring Lionel Messi back to the club.
The report also states that Paris Saint-Germain still wants Lionel Messi to stay at the club beyond the end of the current campaign. However, the likelihood that Messi will go elsewhere has increased recently, and it has encouraged Barcelona.
It remains to be seen what decision Messi takes with regards to his future. If he decides to part ways with PSG at the end of the season, it will be interesting to see where the Argentine goes.
If Lionel Messi leaves PSG, it also remains to be seen if Barcelona will be able to pull off a move to sign the Argentine superstar.
Meanwhile, Messi will be aiming to aid PSG to Ligue 1 glory this season.
