Messi discuss about his decision to join Inter Miami over Barcelona

Messi: “If it had been a matter of money, I’d have gone to Arabia or elsewhere. It seemed like a lot of money to me”, told MD.

“The truth is that my final decision goes elsewhere and not because of money”.

“I really wanted to return to Barça, I had that dream. But after what happened two years ago, I did not want to be in the same situation again, leaving my future in the hands of someone else…”.

“I wanted to take my own decision, thinking of me and my family”.

“I heard reports of La Liga giving the green light but the truth is that many, really many things were still missing in order to make my return to Barça happen”, told MD

“I didn’t want to be responsible for them to sell players or reduce salaries. I was tired”.

“I’d have loved a farewell like Iniesta, Busquets, Jordi Alba, Xavi… this is why I was very happy to hear the chants with my name by Barça fans at Camp Nou”.

“It was a strange feeling to hear Barça fans calling my name but then… I wasn’t there”.

“Money, never been an issue with me. We didn’t even discuss the contract with Barcelona! They sent me a proposal but was never an official, written and signed proposal”

“We never negotiated my salary. It wasn’t about money otherwise I was going to join Saudi”.

“I was dreaming of Barça return, yes; but I was never sure about that happening because I remember very well the story of August 2021, two years ago”, told MD.

“I didn’t want to tell my kids: we go back to Barcelona! And then, nothing. I was quiet”.

“I’m not sure if Barça did everything possible to make it happen, honestly; I just know what Xavi told me…”.

“I’m sure that there’s people into the club that does NOT want me to return to Barça, considering that negative for the club”.

Busquets to Inter Miami? This was a lie, saying I was going to same club as Jordi Alba and Busi. No, we never agreed to join the same club”.

“I made my decision to join Miami and I don’t know what they are gonna do”.

“I received bids from other European clubs but I didn’t even considered those proposals because my only idea was to join Barcelona in Europe”.

“With Barça deal collapsing, I wanted to try something different now in Miami”.

“I’d love to be close to Barcelona. I will live in Barcelona again, it’s already decided. I hope to help the club one day, because it’s the club I love”.

“I wanna thank the Barça fans for all their support. And yes, I’d love to be again here… definitely”.
