He had an incredible playing career the club and in 2021 could not renew his contract with the club due to financial constraints on the part of the club and so had to move away to France. He a two year deal with the French giants, Paris Saint German (PSG) where he also had an outstanding performance, also wining two more Ballon d'Ors at the club.

Lionel Messi have said that he would have loved to end his career at the club he loved FC Barcelona but this was not possible because he has had to make two major moves after his career ended at the Spanish club - He has gone to France for PSG and now playing at Inter Miami in the MLS of USA. But he has not stopped been a fan of the city and people of Barcelona nor the club.

In his recent interview after news broke out that he might not be in attendance at the club's anniversary because of an already scheduled engagement on the said date. He affirmed his love he and his family has for the city. In his words, ''My kids were born here. I've spent my whole life living there. I feel I belong to Barcelona'' he said at the interview.

He also added that his love for the team has not changed and expressed happiness for the current team's success. ''I see Barcelona. They are doing great and I'm not surprised at all'' He reacted.

But his attendance of the club's 29th November celebration is still debated as his presence will mean so much for the club and to him. Stakeholders are hoping that a last minute change could put events in a favourable condition for his attendance.

We will keep fingers crossed as we observe further developments.
