wE has been published in Marca since before the summer, with Intermiami and Lionel Messi negotiating the next renewal of the Argentine star with the MLS club, which will end its contract at the end of 2025.
The update is still underway without a rush or pause (there was a media rush on this issue today), but it is unlikely to arrive this week either. The intent has been clear for a while, but details are lacking and the contract must pass through MLS first. This must be granted approval, just like any player in the league.
The best soccer tricks this year
Leo’s idea is to win a title with the club and stay active in Miami to become the best shape of the 2026 World Cup. This is his sixth World Cup, and is unprecedented in football history (with 8 five players and Cristiano).
Intel is handling Leo’s long-term contracts if they want to remain active beyond the age of 40. There are many speculations about the length of the contract, but few people still know the reality.
I’ll explain it. The important thing is that both want to be together, and the important thing is that Leo plays as long as he feels that way and has the power to do so. This is unrelated to contracts signed in 2019 (as MLS competes like this for now). Inter offers a multi-year contract, whether it’s 2, 3, 4, or 5 years, so it’s independent.
In other words, Messi plays as much as he wants, taking over the rest of the club (he has to compete with Barca). This is important. This is important. As Leo is already an Intel partner (subsidy), i.e. one owner (signed in his first contract), it is contradictory to talk about a particular year, as Leo is already the owner of (partially) the owner. It is still unclear whether this participation will be extended.
In short, we have to wait for the official announcement. How long do you know? Patience.
