Barcelona senior Laporta has revealed that he will have the opportunity to meet Lionel Messi during his trip to Paris next Monday. Although in accordance with the provisions of the two are not allowed to discuss transfer matters, but the content of private exchanges is still rich.
Messi is the best player in the history of our club and we must give him the respect he deserves," Laporta said fondly. The Barcelona family will always remember his name. This Sunday, the 18th anniversary of his first appearance as a debutant for Barcelona, we plan to prepare some special surprises for him in private."
Laporta will arrive in Paris at the beginning of next week for the Ballon d'Or ceremony. Although Messi was not nominated, Laporta is sure he will be able to meet him in Paris: "He is a Paris Saint-Germain player and we have to show respect. Many Barcelona fans still wear Messi's jersey and know all about his career."
Despite Laporta's prior statement that he would not discuss a transfer, Messi's contract with Paris Saint-Germain is set to expire next summer, and there is still uncertainty about his future moves. A meeting between the two at this sensitive time has naturally sparked speculation.
