Argentina stars convinced PSG star Messi has Newell's Old Boys plans

PSG ace Lionel Messi could ignore a return to Barcelona and re-sign for Newell's Old Boys should Argentina win the World Cup.

That's according to Argentine journalist Sebastian Vignolo.

If it happens, it would be after the season in Europe comes to an end. Messi still wants to win the UEFA Champions League with PSG, Vignolo stated on ESPN.

During an exchange, Vignolo dropped the bomb and Sergo Agüero confirmed it. However, what Hernan Crespo said after was the final clue to reveal Messi wants to play for Newell's Old Boys after the World Cup.

Vignolo said in studio: "After the World Cup, if everything works out well. Messi would like to spoil himself a little bit. To be clear, he won't return to Barcelona. I don't know if it will be 6, 4 or 2 months but he would like to spoil himself with that for a bit. But I will not tell."

Former Manchester City striker Agüero was quick to point out the following: "I already know about that too."

Finally, ex-Inter Milan star Crespo let too much information slip, which sent the Internet ablaze: "I don't know what you are talking about but I can guess. If so, he will have to talk to 'Chiqui' Tapia to remodel several stadiums in Argentina."
