“Coming Home” – Boasting a Net Worth of $600,000,000, Lionel Messi Could ‘Take a Cut’ to Return to Barcelona
As the summer window approaches, the future of many payers remains uncertain. Names like Neymar will be marketed for teams to scramble. By far the biggest name on this list is Lionel Messi. He has refused to sign an extension with Paris club PSG and will be a free agent in the next transfer window. While many clubs may have their eyes on the biggest free agency during the transfer window, neither team has a real option to bid for him. Fans around the world have prayed for Lionel Messi's return to the Camp Nou. Since winning the World Cup, those speculations have only increased. With several encounters between Messi and Xavi among other Barca veterans, it is clear that the pride of Argentine football could return to the club he has spent his entire career with.
Although it sounds appealing to almost every football fan. It would be an economic nightmare to sign Messi even on the same contract he has with PSG. Barca are struggling, and that means that if Messi wants to join the club, he will have to take a huge pay cut.
Fans ready to welcome Lionel Messi
Football journalist Gerard Romero had a piece of news to throw at the football community. Last night, he hinted that Messi is ready to take a big pay cut to join the Spanish club. He has dominated the football world with this club. How far this cut will go remains unclear and possibly only after his signing is announced. Here's how fans reacted to the news.
Barcelona are going through difficult times and they cannot buy Lionel Messi. Even if he takes a slight pay cut, Barca could struggle to make ends meet. It must be a massive pay cut that could knock Lionel Messi from the world's 3rd biggest signing out of the top 10.
His departure from the club was full of tears. But if he comes back, the entrance will have electricity. What will fans do to see him burn Real Madrid again in El Clasico? However, if this dream comes true, it also means that on the other side of the world, David Beckham has not achieved what he most wanted.
Beckham contract with Messi
According to many sources, MLS is scratching their heads to be able to make an attractive offer for the Argentinian star. MLS officials are eyeing a David Beckham-like signing for Messi. In 2007, Beckham shocked the world when he joined LA Galaxy with a very high salary. However, he was thinking about the long term.
A clause in his contract entitles him to an MLS franchise with a dollar base amount. Offering the same deal could attract Messi. However, fans and experts believe that if Messi leaves PSG, he will most likely join Barcelona.
