Lionel Messi, the captain of Argentina, has been pushed by Brazilian star Juninho to join Barcelona once his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires in June.
Juninho thinks it would be preferable for Messi to rejoin Barcelona rather than sign with a team in Saudi Arabia and compete against his enduring nemesis, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Messi’s current deal with PSG expires in less than three months.
The 35-year-old has been linked with a return to Barcelona, clubs in Saudi Arabia, and a move to Major League Soccer in the United States but has not yet signed a new contract with PSG.
“He [Messi] has succeeded in everything; he’s the world champion, but time passes for everyone. I think the best thing [for him] is to return to Barcelona but in another way. Returning to Barca with the same contract might not go down well with the supporters,” Juninho told RMC Sport.
“If he returns to Barca with his heart, another speech and a contract [taking into account] the conditions of Barca today, it can be a good choice. It is better than going to a derby against Cristiano Ronaldo, with all due respect to the Saudi League.”
