Lionel Messi's current contract with Inter Miami is set to expire after the 2025 MLS season. There has been much speculation surrounding the Argentine's future.

Many sources believe that Messi will leave Inter Miami to return to his old club Newell's Old Boys (Argentina). However, the financial attraction of Saudi Arabian clubs is also considered a potential destination for Messi.

Or Messi could also announce his retirement at the end of this year, as he once affirmed that "he is not sure if he will participate in the 2026 World Cup".

According to the latest information from Catalunya Radio (Spain), Messi (38 years old) has no intention of retiring. The Argentine superstar will continue to be associated with Inter Miami and wants to extend his illustrious career until 2028, when he will be 41 years old. The contract extension between Messi and Inter Miami will be announced soon.

If this information is correct, Messi will almost certainly attend the 2026 World Cup in the US. That is one of the reasons why he prioritizes continuing to stick with Inter Miami. Recently, Inter Miami has tried every way to recruit Rodrigo De Paul from Atletico Madrid.

Rodrigo De Paul is Messi's close teammate in the Argentina national team. This move by Inter Miami is considered to please Messi before the two sides sign a new contract.

Messi joined Inter Miami in 2023. Since then, the Argentine superstar has played 43 matches and scored 39 goals. On July 31, Messi continued to shine when he scored two assists to help Inter Miami beat Atlas 2-1 in the first round of the League Cup.
