Messi meets PSG and insists on going to the US in the future

[엑스포츠뉴스 김정현 인턴기자] Lionel Messi’s rise is still in the dark.

Reporter Jose Ponceti of Cadena Ser, Spain, appeared on a radio broadcast in Spain on the 11th (Korean time) and insisted that Messi’s final destination will be the US MLS Inter Miami, where David Beckham is the owner.

The reporter said, “It seemed that Messi’s father, Jorge Messi, would talk to PSG as Barcelona left PSG in the 2020/21 season UEFA Champions League round 2 second leg away game,” the reporter said.

The meeting was to discuss what would happen if Messi lived in Paris. It was not a meeting to confirm the transfer to PSG.

However, the reporter said that the meeting between Jorge Messi and PSG was broken, and the reason was the election of Juan Laporta as president of Barcelona. La Porta moved to Paris to meet with the PSG chairman that day.

In the Barcelona presidential election, which took place on the 8th, Laporta was elected the new president of Barcelona with a vote of 54%.

Chairman La Porta began his career as Lionel Messi from 2003 to 2010 at a young age, and he has had a successful career with the 2008/09 season of Barcelona’s Treble and six crowns.

After La Porta stepped down as chairman, Joseph Bartomeu ruined the finances of the Barcelona club, and the club fell into a big crisis, and La Porta emerged as the savior again.

Here, Laporta is known for being close to Messi, who had the worst relationship with the former president. Therefore, the prevailing prediction that Laporta’s election will likely lead to the Messi remaining.

But the reporter insisted,’Mesh will go to Inter Miami in at least two years, no matter what happens.’

He also mentioned a specific number, saying,’The probability of Messi remaining in Barcelona was 78% before, but now it is 50%’.

After the end of the game, Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman also said, ‘Messi must have seen the change of the young players in the game on this day. I said, “I have no doubts about his stay in Barcelona.”
