The 35-year-old World Champion is always at home in Camp Nou.
Lionel Messi, 34 at that time, spent more than half his life playing for FC Barcelona. With 20 years of rich experience, he transformed from just a teenager playing for Argentina to being the best footballer in the world.
During this time, he also became the club’s record holder for the maximum number of appearances and for also being the top scorer, scoring 672 times in 778 games.
Maybe, that was the peak of his career, as compared to how his career is being shaped at Paris Saint-German FC. Should he be joining Barca again? Let's see why he should.
1 The rate of Scoring has lessened
When Messi was playing for Barca, he played a grand total of 778 games in which his percentage of scoring a goal was 86.37%.
But, ever since he started playing for PSG, he has scored only 26 goals out of 60 appearances made on the field. His scoring rate for his national team, Argentina is higher with 98 goals within 172 matches.
On the whole, Messi has played 1010 matches in which he has scored a total of 796 goals. But, if we compare his rate of scoring a goal at FC Barcelona to that of PSG, we see a stark difference.
