After beating Brazil, the possibility of Messi returning to Europe in the short term
The captain of the Argentine National Team closed the year with a historic victory in Rio de Janeiro.
Lionel Messi said goodbye to the season with a smile. Although the man from Rosario could not finish the campaign with Inter Miami in the best way after the initial excitement of winning the Leagues Cup, the Argentine National Team gave him a great reason to smile. After the surprising defeat against Uruguay in La Bombonera, the Albiceleste showed a show of authority at the Maracaná and beat Brazil at home in the South American Qualifiers, something that had not happened to the Verdeamarela in its entire history.
Thus, the top Ballon d'Or winner (8) left behind the bad taste in his mouth of not having qualified for the MLS Playoffs with the Herons. Now, precisely this last disappointment ended the pink team's campaign early and opened the door to a possible return to European football on loan, something that David Beckham and Thierry Henry had already done in the past in similar situations. However, something that happened in the classic with Brazil dictated the sentence.
As confirmed by Rodrigo De Paul, Lionel Messi suffered a tear against Verdeamarela, something that eliminates any type of chance of going to the Old Continent to play taking into account that, if he signs on loan with a club like Barcelona, he will be out for more time his injury than on the playing field. In this way, La Pulga's vacation officially begins, waiting to begin the preseason with Inter in January.
Will Inter Miami play the friendly with Al-Nassr in February?
In recent days, multiple portals and journalists, including Fabrizio Romano, confirmed that the Herons would play the Riyadh Season Cup against Al-Nassr so that Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo could face each other for the last time. However, Inter issued a statement denying it, although hours later it was removed from the website and now everything remained a big unknown.
