Barcelona have been active in the transfer market despite their financial troubles and it now appears as though Xavi is planning a stunning return for Lionel Messi.
Messi wanted to stay at the Camp Nou last summer, but La Liga regulations meant it was impossible for Barcelona to re-sign the star due to issues with their current wage bill - and it was not possible for the Argentine to take a substantial wage cut. A lot has changed since Messi joined Paris Saint-Germain and Xavi is plotting an unlikely return for the Barcelona legend.
Xavi is putting together a proposal to the Barcelona board that would see Messi retire at the club like initially planned, according to SPORT. The Barcelona boss still feels as though Messi can offer the club a lot and if a deal can be worked out, the Argentine may be granted his wish to retire at the Nou Camp.
