Lionel Messi lives decisive days for his future. The man from Rosario will play his last game as a PSG player this weekend, but those 90 minutes will be anecdotal taking into account everything that is being talked about in his next destination, in addition to the fact that Paris Saint-Germain has already won the title of Ligue 1.

This Monday the information emerged that the captain of the Argentine National Team wants to make a quick decision and from Spain they assure that his father, Jorge Messi, has already given the green light to the offer of Al Hilal. However, this Tuesday Barça sent an unofficial offer to make clear its intention for Leo to return to the Camp Nou.

Now, although the wish of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) is to return to Spain, he would have set a condition that left everyone stunned. According to journalist Aaron Domínguez, Messi wants Pepe Costa to have a position at Barcelona. Specifically, he wants him to have a role similar to the one he already occupied when he was in the Catalan team.

Who is Pepe Costa?

He is a former Spanish player who came to the leadership of Barcelona in 2003 at the hands of Sandro Rosell to manage the player service office. It was then that he began to develop a great affinity with Lionel Messi, to the point of becoming his close friend. He currently accompanies him everywhere and went with him to Paris when Leo signed for PSG. Pepe Costa is practically the shadow of La Pulga and you act as spokesman, companion and even bodyguard.
