As we head towards the end of the 2022/23 football season, the future of Paris Saint-Germain’s Lionel Messi will be up for debate again.
His former club, FC Barcelona, have publicly courted the Argentinian, with Xavi confirming his club’s talks over a return for his former team-mate, per FourFourTwo.
On Tuesday afternoon, news broke via L’Equipe that Messi had made an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia, and during the evening, BBC Sport were one of the outlets to report that he was suspended by the Ligue Un giants, meaning he wouldn’t play, train or be paid for two weeks.
Such a sanction will clearly put even further strain on the relationship that Messi has with his paymasters, and bring a potential switch back to the Camp Nou closer if Barca can sort out their financial mess.
One respected L’Equipe journalist, Loic Tanzi, has already tweeted that Messi will not be at PSG next season.

If the Catalans are unable to assuage La Liga that they can afford Messi, then this also opens up the possibility of either a switch to the Premier League and to David Beckham’s Inter Miami side.
The Sun noted back in February that the MLS side were in pole position to land the World Cup winner, in what would be the biggest coup for the league since Beckham himself moved to LA Galaxy.
