In an exclusive interview with Sport.fr, newly signed Inter Miami player Lionel Messi has shared his advice with Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe regarding his future club. Messi, known for his incredible success at FC Barcelona before his move to Miami, expressed his preference for Mbappe to join his former team but acknowledged Real Madrid as well.
The Argentine legend stated, “I’d prefer you to go to Barca. But if you want to go to Madrid, do it. You deserve a deal, a winning project.” Messi’s words reveal his respect for Mbappe’s talent and his belief that the young Frenchman deserves to be part of a team that can offer him a competitive and successful environment.
Messi’s preference for Barcelona likely comes from his deep emotional connection to the club where he spent the majority of his professional career. The two players have often been compared due to their similar playing styles and extraordinary abilities, and it is evident that Messi sees potential in Mbappe continuing Barcelona’s legacy.
