A Barcelona executive has admitted it's "possible" Lionel Messi could return to the Nou Camp next summer amid heightened speculation surrounding his future.
The Argentine forward, 35, has less than a year remaining on his contract at Paris Saint-Germain, who are keen to tie him down to an extension. Messi is delaying opening talks with the French club until the new year as he wants to be fully focused on the upcoming World Cup in Qatar.
That would leave Messi in a position where he would be free to discuss terms with potential suitors from January, due to being in the last six months of his deal. Having been forced to leave his beloved Barca, Messi has always been open to the prospect of a return, though much would depend on the club's finances.
