Inter Miami striker Lionel Messi believes that not all Barcelona executives wanted him back.
There are definitely people who don't want me back. Just like they didn't want me to stay when I had to leave. Like many people, I know who wanted me back. They've talked about it publicly. But there are definitely those in management who do not want me and think that my return would be a problem for the club.

Recall, yesterday, June 7, it became known that Messi will continue his career at Inter Miami. Before accepting Inter's offer, the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner rejected the offers of Barcelona and the Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.
The Argentinian striker took part in 41 matches for PSG in all competitions last season, scoring 21 goals and making 20 assists.
