Since joining David Beckham’s Inter Miami in the summer, Messi has been on fire, scoring 11 goals in his first 11 appearances and leading the MLS club to its first-ever championship.

With his September purchase оf a $10.8 milliоn prоperty in Flоrida, the seven-time Ballоn d’оr winner drоpped hints that he planned tо remain with Inter Miami fоr the fоreseeable future.

Saudi Arabia still has hopes of signing the Argentine and is considering bringing him to the Middle East on loan this winter.

Sky Sports reporter Rudy Galetti says that “internal evaluations are still ongoing,” but that “developments are expected soon.”

If Lionel Messi were to sign with Al Nassr of the Saudi Pro League, he would renew an old rivalry with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Since the Major League Soccer season ends at the end of February, Messi would have nearly five months of free time if he made a loan move.

According to the source, the Public Investment Fund considers signing the World Cup champion to be a pivotal step.

Prior to joining Barcelona, Messi was courted by Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal with an eye-popping €400 million per year contract, but he ultimately decided to sign with Barcelona instead.

The 36-year-old is widely expected to depart Inter Miami upon the conclusion of his current deal in 2025.

However, he has previously expressed interest in returning to Newell’s Old Boys, his youth club, and a reunion with Barcelona is also possible.

Manager of Inter Miami Tata Martino expressed uncertainty about Messi’s future, saying, “Messi to Barcelona?” Surely not for a stroll in the park?

In all hоnesty, I was taken aback by this. I am cоmpletely clueless. Pоssibly, if I hear that he plans tо spend his hоliday in Barcelоna. Tо tell yоu the truth, I have nо idea.
