Summary of Argentina's 0:3 win over Jamaica, including a double by Leo Messi (Sport 1)
Leo Messi stirred up the world of football when he left Barcelona a year ago, which paved the way for him because of its financial difficulties and the difficulty of meeting his salary.
Except that at the end of the season, Messi will finish his contract with Paris Saint-Germain and according to the latest reports arriving in France, the Argentinian star has no intention of extending the contract and will leave the French team after two full seasons
. For his part, Messi has already said that he will not deal with his future at least until after the World Cup, but In Barcelona, they fantasize about his comeback and to facilitate this move, they are thinking about the financial measures that will allow the comeback of the greatest player in the history of the club and perhaps of football since forever.

According to reports coming from Spain, Barca is planning for at least 150 million euros in player salaries next season, to make room in their salary budget.
How will she do it?
According to the report, the veteran players - Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Gerard Pique will be asked to significantly cut their wages.
In "Sport" they claim that Barcelona pays over 550 million euros just for salaries per year and they want to offset this in a significant way.
Eduard Romeu, the vice president of Barcelona, already referred to a possible comeback of Messi and said that "it would be financially possible at all for Messi to return as a free agent".
Messi will indeed come for free, but in order to meet his salary, Barca will significantly cut the players' wages, when the club will try to "get rid" of at least Alba and Pique, who became bench players this summer.
The veteran stopper was pushed to the edge of the bench after the signing of Conde and Alba made way for the young Balda, with Marcos Alonso also able to play in that position.
As for Busquets, he is still a regular in Xavi's squad and is still preferred by senior bench players such as Frankie de Jong and Franck Casilla so he is unlikely to leave, at least not this summer.
