Lionel Messi is one of the most important players in the history of FC Barcelona. The Argentine has shown that he has the quality to continue playing in Europe. Despite this, Messi has decided to take another path and start a new stage in his career playing in a league that offers him more time with his family and away from the media pressure of Europe.

Faced with this, both MLS and Inter Miami offered Lionel to continue being the player where he could continue to shine and monopolize the front pages of the most important newspapers in Europe. Since his arrival at Inter Miami, David Beckham's team has had a boost in every way. After his arrival, The Herons lifted their first championship with the Leagues Cup. With this achievement, the Argentine became the player with the most titles in history.

Similarly, there are fans around the world who were waiting for the Argentine's arrival back at FC Barcelona. Nonetheless, his decision to go to the United States undoubtedly surprised many fans. It should be noted that with Miami out of the MLS Playoffs, the opportunity opened up again so that now Lionel could come home again. However, these rumours were dismissed by the player himself after the win against Peru.

On the other hand, the player scored a brace against Peru and showed that he is still a decisive player. It should be noted that the former PSG player missed some games due to injury. In recent days, national and international media have reported that Barcelona plan to play a farewell tribute match for the player at the Camp Nou. In light of this, Deco, a legend of the team and now also a member of the team as a manager, spoke about it.

Deco's words

After Joan Laporta's words previewing when Messi could return to the Camp Nou for a tribute with the team, Deco mentioned the following according to One Football

Quoted by One Football

I think it will be a farewell game, but maybe in the new stadium when it is ready. The club had great idols like (Johan) Cruyff or Ronaldo, but he (Messi) is perhaps the greatest of them all. He's playing and hopefully he'll play for more years, because people who like football will be happy to see him happy, Deco stated
