Robert Lewandowski has spoken of his desire to play alongside Lionel Messi just days after Barcelona president Joan Laporta talked up a sensational return to the Camp Nou for the Argentine.
Messi joined the French giants on a two-year contract in the summer of 2021 after Barcelona were unable to register a new contract for the playmaker due to their financial situation. After a difficult debut campaign in Paris, he has netted 12 goals and provided 14 assists this term and has spoken of his happiness at adapting to life in France.
The superstar played a key role in Argentina’s remarkable World final victory over France earlier this month. Messi broke multiple records in the final and, while he eventually missed out on the Golden Boot to PSG teammate Kylian Mbappe – whose stunning hat-trick twice pegged back Argentina in the showpiece event – the 35-year-old eventually got his hands on the trophy after netting two goals of his own.
