Lionel Messi reportedly could join Atletico Madrid

Lionel Messi — the Argentine football legend who made history with Barcelona — is now being linked with a possible move to Atletico Madrid.

During his 17-year spell at Barcelona, La Pulga managed to collect 34 trophies — including two treble winners that proved his dominance in European football.

The beautiful journey with the Catalan club had to end in summer 2021 — when La Liga’s salary cap regulations forced Barcelona to let their star player go without a contract extension.

After leaving Camp Nou, Messi chose to join Paris Saint-Germain for two seasons before ultimately deciding to move to Inter Miami — the club he still represents today.
