The MSN trio still lives in the memory of football enthusiasts. Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, and Neymar formed one of the most memorable attacking lines of all time at FC Barcelona. With two of its three members currently on the same team, many still dream of seeing a complete reunion.

But is there a possibility that the Brazilian will join Inter Miami to see them together again? That’s what Messi was asked in an interview with Infobae, and in his response, there was no confirmation, though he didn’t rule it out either: “The truth is, it’s difficult now, he’s in Arabia, he has a year left on his contract, I think.”

“He had a difficult year, with many injuries that kept him out of the Copa América as well, and he couldn’t play most of the games in Arabia. So, it’s difficult now. After that, I don’t know, life takes so many turns that anything can happen, but I think for now, no,” Messi added.

The Argentine star, who is preparing to defend the Copa América title Argentina won in Brazil in 2021, revealed that he keeps in touch with Ney on WhatsApp and even has a group that includes Luis Suárez as well.

The Brazilian, meanwhile, was not called up for the continental tournament as he is in the final stages of his recovery from an ACL injury, sustained in October 2023.
