DBasia.news – Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has again made the public full of question marks. La Pulga reportedly did not join the group of other Barcelona players after the match against Real Valladolid.
Lionel Messi led Barcelona to beat Real Valladolid 3-0 in the 2020-2021 LaLiga follow-up match, at the Jose Zorrilla Stadium, Wednesday (23/12). Messi played from the start of the match and became the team captain.
Not only that, Lionel Messi also scored one goal in that match. The other two goals belonged to Clement Lenglet (21′) and Martin Braithwaite (35′).
Even though the match was over, Lionel Messi still stole the show. Marca reported, Messi left the stadium not with other Barca players.
The 33-year-old is reportedly headed for the airport to leave by private jet. Marca suspected that Lionel Messi’s destination was Argentina.
Messi is predicted to want to meet his family in Argentina to celebrate Christmas. Moreover, Barcelona’s Christmas and New Year holidays are quite short because they will return to compete on December 30 against Eibar.
That way, the issue linking Lionel Messi’s departure to a private jet related to the transfer market can be mitigated. Moreover, Ronald Koeman also emphasized that Messi was happy at Barcelona.
“I’ve said it many times. I see Lionel Messi happy here. Messi is very important to us with his creativity. You can see that when there are good players around him,” explained Koeman.
So far, there is no sign Lionel Messi will extend his contract with Barcelona. Reportedly, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are the two leading clubs to attract Messi.
