    Barcelona vice-president Rafa Yuste has revealed the club are in contact with Lionel Messi’s camp over a potential summer return to Camp Nou.

    Messi signed a two-year initial deal with Paris Saint-Germain when he left Barcelona in 2021, but he also had the option to extend it by an additional season. This option has not yet been activated.

    While Messi has received a new contract offer from PSG and has interest from MLS and Saudi Arabian teams as well, reports that Barcelona is optimistic about bringing Messi back to the team he previously played for 21 years.

    Furthermore, Yuste has now admitted that Barcelona is in communication with Messi and has made no secret of his desire to bring the 35-year-old back to Catalonia.

    “Leo and his family know the affection I have for them,” he told Sport. “I participated in the negotiations that unfortunately did not lead to success.

    “I’m gutted that Leo could not continue at out club. If you talk about La Masia, you talk about Messi. Of course, I would love to see him come back, for what it could represent at a sporting, social and economic level. and I think the fans too because beautiful stories in life have to have a happy ending. And we are in love with Messi and I think Messi is in love with Barça and the city of Barcelona. We are in contact with them, yes.”

    Yuste’s words were soon put to manager Xavi who, as always, was keen to keep the focus on his current team.

    “This is not the time to talk about Leo’s return,” Xavi said. “I am a friend and I speak often with him, but this is not the time. Neither for the good of Leo, nor the club. It is a subject that we are dealing with. I have a lot of friendship, but we are a world away from it being able to be done.”

    Xavi continued: “I watched Messi grow. He’s exemplary. It’s normal for there to be an illusion. One last ‘Last Dance’, like Michael Jordan. It’s normal for people to get excited.

    “Hopefully I can see Leo again at Barça in some capacity. I would be the first to celebrate his return. It’s the club of his life, he is the best player in history, but this is not the time to talk. We are one month away from being able to win two titles. We don’t have to talk about possible signings or Messi, we have to focus on Elche, Real Madrid, and everything else that is coming.”

    Even though, Yuste acknowledged that Barcelona still has a lot of work to do if they are to convince La Liga that they have the financial wherewithal to re-sign Messi.

    “There are two months left in which we have to work, especially Mateu [Alemany] and Jordi [Cruyff], to first present our viability plan to [La Liga president Javier] Tebas,” the vice-president acknowledged. “The president was with Leo’s father and there is a good relationship.

    “Of course, there is no plan of attack because I do not want PSG to see it precisely as that. If this happens, it will happen because destiny makes you return to where you have to return. If we can fulfil all the conditions and return Leo to Barcelona, it would be the perfect ending to a very happy story.”

    PSG manager Christophe Galtier, meanwhile, also confirmed that the club remain in talks with Messi over an extension.

    “We’re working on what’s going to happen next season, along with [sporting advisor] Luis Campos and the management,” he said.

    “People have different opinions on where we want to improve to be more competitive. There are talks between the two parties. Personally I’m focused on the next ten games to go and get that Ligue 1 title. Regarding what Messi and the club will decide, that remains confidential.”
