Several influential sources reported that eight-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi had reached an agreement on a new contract with Inter Miami, a US club he has played for since the summer of 2023. According to the agreement, the Argentinian star is expected to sign a new contract with the club until the end of 2028.
However, new data shows that the situation is different. According to the influential Spanish publication El Nacional, the 38-year-old Leo has changed his mind. The source notes that Messi no longer intends to extend his career, but rather to complete it in the coming years. He committed to implementing this decision in his homeland, with his first club he founded - "Newell's Old Boys."
Thus, the legend of world football most likely dreams of ending his career at the Argentinian club and once again taking the honor of his first team to the highest podium.
Messi's future with the Argentina national team is also uncertain. No one can say for sure whether he will play in the 2026 World Cup. However, according to El Nacional analysts, Leo wants to participate in his final World Cup as a Newell's Old Boys player, enriching the history of his beloved club with even brighter pages.
Undoubtedly, Messi's decision is of great interest not only to the Argentinian but also to the entire global football community. His career, the history he wrote with every club and national team he played for, is already valued as a sports legend.
