Former teammates at FC Barcelona from 2013 to 2017, and later at PSG between 2021 and 2023, will Neymar Junior and Lionel Messi play together again in the near future? It seems unlikely.
A Third Chapter for Neymar and Messi?
In the summer transfer window of 2013, FC Barcelona stunned the football world by spending €88 million to sign Neymar Junior, the prodigy from Santos. The Brazilian quickly showcased his immense talent and developed a strong connection with Leo Messi. In 2021, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner reunited with Neymar at Paris Saint-Germain, forming a lethal partnership. However, now that the two stars are separated by thousands of miles, could they reunite in Major League Soccer next season? According to Tata Martino, the answer is “impossible.”
After bringing in Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets, could Inter Miami recruit another former Barcelona legend in the coming months? Recently, Neymar’s purchase of a mansion in Miami has fueled speculation about a potential move to join Messi in Florida. However, in comments reported by ESPN, Tata Martino, the current head coach of Inter Miami, put an end to these rumors.
According to Martino, the chances of seeing Neymar and Messi play together again are slim to none: “It’s absurd, let’s be clear. First of all, we need to consider what the league offers.”
