Bye Barcelona and bye Al Hilal, this is Lionel Messi's next confirmed destination
Lionel Messi has as main possible destinations FC Barcelona and Al Hilal FC but he will play here first
Lionel Messi is the world football news while he waits to define his future. Although the two main options have to do with FC Barcelona and Al Hilal FC from Saudi Arabia, the only thing that the Argentine striker has confirmed is where he is going to play in mid-June and it is not precisely either of those two destinations.
As confirmed by the Argentine journalist Hernán Claus of the newspaper Olé, despite not having a club, Lionel Messi will be part of the Argentine National Team that will play a tour of Asia starting on June 15. On that continent, Lionel Scaloni's squad will face two friendlies against Australia and Indonesia.
In this way, Lionel Messi shows the great commitment that he currently has with the Argentine National Team after the euphoria generated by winning the World Cup. He calmly could have gotten off the tour, however, he preferred to be competing instead of advancing his vacation.
The two companions who are in a similar situation
Not only Lionel Messi is facing this scenario counting the world champions in Qatar 2022 with the Argentine National Team. The midfielder Ángel Di María was released from Juventus and must look for a club, the same case as Leandro Paredes, who will not be taken into account after his return to PSG and will be a free agent.
