That’s why Messi should also get a five-year contract, according to media reports. It is unlikely that he will. He will obviously play until the World Cup at the end of 2022 and therefore the 2022/2023 season will also likely be over. But he will still be owed a salary, like “Mundo deportivo”, if he is appointed ambassador to the United States, where he will likely end his career as a footballer.

Last summer, Messi wanted to leave FC Barcelona after some follies and low sporting strikes like the disastrous 2:8 bankruptcy in the Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich. This failed due to the exit clause and the veto of the then president. By the end of his last contract with the club thus far, the two parties were unable to agree on an extension. With 35 titles, 672 goals and 778 games, Messi has already made history at the 121-year-old club whose championship season kicks off on August 15 with a home game against Real Sociedad San Sebastian.
