As Messi looks to the future, he is reportedly eyeing a move that will allow him to be at the top of his game for the 2026 World Cup. This suggests that he may be considering leaving Inter Miami in order to lead his country to glory once again. A return to his roots is also a possibility, with some speculating that he may complete an emotional homecoming transfer to Newell's Old Boys, a club where he has a strong connection.

Interestingly, Messi's former teammate Angel Di Maria has also made a similar move, returning to Rosario Central at the age of 37. When asked if Messi will one day return to Argentina, Tapia gave a simple and optimistic answer: "I hope so."

Messi has a lifelong connection to Newell's, having played for the club from the age of six to 13. He then joined Barcelona, and the rest of his career is history. As the summer transfer window approaches, Messi's future will become clearer, and it will be interesting to see which direction he chooses to take.
