“I made the decision that I am going to go to Miami.'
The 35-year-old forward had been linked with Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal, to join a league which already features Cristiano Ronaldo and now Karim Benzema.
“If the Barcelona thing didn’t work out, I wanted to leave Europe, get out of the spotlight and think more in my family,” he said. PSG announced last week that Messi would be leaving and he had reportedly been offered a deal worth 400m euros per year to move to Saudi Arabia. “Going to live in the United States in a different way and enjoying day-to-day much more, but with the same responsibility of wanting to win and always doing things well, but with more peace of mind.”Messi had talked with Barcelona manager and close friend Xavi over a potential return, but said he “spoke very little, once or twice at most” with president Joan Laporta.
