FC Barcelona and Lionel Messi continue a cautious dance. Neither side has fully committed to a return for the Argentine star, but both are reportedly seriously considering it.
Messi has not accepted Paris Saint-Germain’s renewal offer, or offers from outside the top five leagues offering a huge payday. But Barcelona has not made a formal offer either, largely because they are studying what exactly they can offer within La Liga’s salary cap rules.
And Messi himself is said to be waiting for a call from Joan Laporta, the club president which oversaw his exit.
