After the World Cup, everything pointed to Argentine star Lionel Messi renewing his deal with Paris Saint-Germain, and any idea that he was destined for MLS in the near future disappeared.
Things may have changed and according to journalist Gerard Romero, the Argentine is no longer convinced that he wants to extend his relationship with the French club and this opens the door for a possible move to MLS either in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Messi ends his contract with the French club in June this year, and according to Romero, the 35-year-old is closer to being a free agent than extending his stay with the Ligue 1 side.
Although for some time now any speculation about a move for the Argentine has linked him to MLS clubs with Inter Miami and New York City FC reported as possible destinations for him, other leagues would also be interested in signing him .
In recent days, it was revealed that Saudi Arabia want the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner following the media hype that accompanied Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Al Nassr.
All this can be done, after the Portuguese earns about 200 million euros a year, and Messi can earn up to 300 million.
Messi was not given a grand reception by PSG despite being declared the winner of the World Cup with Argentina, unlike what happened to the Argentine footballers in France. It is learned that one of the reasons that affects Messi's desire not to renew is the influence that Mbappe has on the French team.
