Rumors have emerged suggesting that Lionel Messi could sign a three-year contract with Manchester City, possibly reuniting with his former coach Pep Guardiola and ending his career at the Premier League club. However, these rumors lack credible sources and conflict with Messi’s previous statements about his career.
As of December 2024, Messi is still under contract with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer (MLS). Earlier this year, he expressed his intention to finish his career at the Miami-based team, saying, “I believe Inter Miami will be my final team. For now, I think it’s where I’ll finish my journey.”
While Messi has acknowledged that retirement is approaching, he has not committed to a specific timeline, stating, “I haven’t set a date or deadline for my future. I just want to enjoy the moment.”
Given Messi’s public statements and the lack of reliable sources confirming a move to Manchester City, it seems unlikely that he will join the Premier League club. Fans should be cautious about unverified rumors and wait for official announcements regarding player transfers and career plans.
