Lionel Messi flew to Barcelona on Monday to dine with Blaugrana boss Xavi Hernandez and several of the Catalan club’s star players.
It is believed to be the first time Messi has returned to the city since leaving the club in his high-profile summer transfer to Paris Saint-Germain this summer.
The Argentine was spotted entering a restaurant where Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba were also having dinner, while Barca boss Xavi was also in the Japanese eatery.
