Lionel Messi transfer news – next club odds: Betting surge sees Inter Miami go favourites as Barcelona price drifts
LIONEL MESSI'S immediate future remains up in the air after his PSG exit was confirmed.
However, it looks like it could become a bit clearer shortly, with Betfair slashing the odds of David Beckham's Inter Miami being his next destination.
In fact, they're now odds on at 17/20 to sign Messi this summer.
Messi, 35, was strongly linked with a PSG exit and return to Barcelona with a couple of months left of the campaign.
A reunion with Xavi at Barca has been mentioned time and again despite Barca's financial issues, with club chiefs meeting with Messi's father recently in the hope of thrashing out a deal.
But there still looks some way to go if that move was to ever materialise, even with a green light from La Liga and it remains to be seen if something can be done.
Barca do come next at 6/4 having been as short at 7/10 earlier this week.
A move to the Saudi Pro League - where several of Europe's top stars are heading this summer - is now a 2/1 shot.
