Messi's contract with PSG expires at the end of the season, and talks of an extension have not been successful, leading to rumors of a possible return to La Liga. The Daily Mail reports that Barcelona is offering Messi a yearly salary of approximately £22m, which is four times less than his previous contract, as the club continues to face financial difficulties.
The report further states that the offer to Messi would be for two years, with the option for him to terminate the contract after the first year. Other teams such as Inter Miami of the MLS and Al-Hilal of the Saudi Pro League have also expressed an interest in the World Cup winner. However, a return to Barcelona this summer remains a possibility, especially under the management of Xavi.
