The Spanish media is once again abuzz with talk about the future of Misi, all stemming from the fact that Misi's father and manager quietly approached Barcelona president Laporta recently for the first time since Misi left the team in 2021. Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain have made no progress in contract extension talks with Misi, whose departure at the end of his contract is becoming more likely, and whose return to Barcelona doesn't seem far-fetched.
According to Radio Catalunya, Laporta did meet with Mace's father recently, and although the conversation did not reveal specifics, it was the first contact since Mace left the club in 2021. This ice-breaking move is one that Barcelona intends to keep low key so that fans don't have high expectations for Misi's return.
Mays helped his team turn back Lille 4-3 with a brilliant penalty in extra time in the last round of Ligue 1. After the match, he warmly embraced with Kylian Mbappe, and the two seemed to have a good relationship. However, according to the French media, Mays has no intention of renewing his contract with PSG, and will leave the team at the end of the season when his contract expires. At this point, the meeting between Mez's father and Laporta has reignited speculation about Mez's return to Barcelona.
In addition, Laporta intends to plan a special tribute match for Mez, with the date set for November 2024 to coincide with Barcelona's 125th anniversary celebrations. This demonstrates Barcelona's sincerity towards Mez despite their limited financial means.
