BBC: Although Saudi Arabia is interested in Messi, Miami International is confident of completing the contract renewal

According to BBC reporter Kincera, Miami International is confident of completing a contract renewal with Messi.

reported that all parties have started negotiations on Messi's extension of the contract, and officials from Miami International and the American Federation of Professionals generally believe that he will renew the contract. Messi sources said that despite reports that Saudi Arabia is interested in players, Messi is open to staying in the United States.

An important motivation for leaving Messi in the United States is to continue to attract people's attention to the FAF, especially as the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup is approaching. In addition, although it has not been confirmed, some speculation is that the 38-year-old Messi will end his Argentina national team career after this World Cup.
