2022 was the best year for Lionel Messi fans. Afterall Messi lifted the trophy which he and his fans desired for long- The World Cup. It was like a fairytale come true. However, since then, there was a slight dip in his form which did not go well with the fans and authorities at PSG. The PSG fans booed him regularly for their poor performances. He also faced a penalty for his holidays with family which according to the club was unprofessional on his part. 

By the end of the season, it was certain that Messi will leave PSG. But which club will he go was the question. Some said Barcelona, some said Saudi Arabia, some said Inter Miami. At the end its Inter Miami where Messi will be playing next season.  Everyone felt that there will be a homecoming for Leo just like Ronaldo in 2021. However, the same did not happen. Messi is off to the US. It is believed that many of his former teammates will also join him on the other side of the Atlantic. Sergio Busquets has already signed for the Inter Miami. 

The Barcelona fans are sad and so are other football fans because with his move to America, we may never see him again in the European football and in the most prestigious club tournament- UEFA Champions League. In January it was Ronaldo. Now its Messi. The two absolute legends of the game are off to a different continent. The European nights will never be the same again. 

An era has indeed come to an end. Goodbye Leo. You will be missed.
