Eds, any idea who would sign him? Or it is more politics at Barcelona to prepone the elections?

{Ed001's Note - it has been coming for a while.}

As strange as it may seem Barcelona could actually become a better side without him and may see the best of AG at long last. He will go to City or PSG. Nobody else has the level of finance required.

PSG, not sure he has the hunger to play in the PL, and I hope he doesn’t go to China or America just yet.

Looking at your picture Barry I'd say you just want any hair.

Ed01, do you think it's too late for the move? I'm sure he would be given the same luxuries in France or Spain but has he got that desire to go to the premier league or will it be a long farewell in the mls? Financially only a handful of clubs could afford the salary package. Would be fun to see - may at least answer the questions about playing in different teams and leagues.

{Ed001's Note - it has been too late for years. He is way out of any team's budget and he would only be signed because of his name. Seems most likely that will mean joining Inter Miami as Becks has been desperate to get him to join since it launched.}

Lads your all wrong he's off to North Korea. Wait wait I mean Bray Wanderers, sure it's close enough, at least to our former chairman it is anyway 😂.
Messi must have always dreamed of running out into the abyss or as it's officially known "The Carlisle Grounds".

Would he not just end up going back to newells as he's always said he'd like to play there before he retires. I know he's still one of the best and can play in any top side but at 33 he can't be looking around and seeing many attractive moves currently. PSG won't win him another ballon d'or, man city his only English club possibility but pep might not risk upsetting the balance, bayern not needing to add him, Italian football not strong enough asides from juve who have Ronaldo. He's achieved everything and shown the world for over a decade that he will be forever spoken of in debates of the best ever footballer in history. He's earned ridiculous money and will continue to earn big sponsorship and marketing offers so China, MLS options would just be a payday. I'd love to see him push for a move home and play for his home club while still top quality and not bothered about the money only love for football. In Argentina he's never been adored to the level he deserves. A move like that may give him the chance to show the fans that he belongs to them. The likes of riquelme, tevez, Martin Palermo have shown that they could enjoy periods in their career without being in Europe.

Messi has only 1 thing in his career that people will use against him and that is the notion that he could never win his nation a world cup, perhaps moving home might open the path for him to get backed by his own fans to have 1 last crack without the pressure that they always put on him and scrutiny for every moment the team fell short.
