JAKARTA - Barcelona's embarrassing defeat to Bayern Munich with a score of 8-2 in the Champions League was followed by Lionel Messi's decision to leave Barcelona. The world of football was in an uproar. Everyone talked about Messi for about a week.

However, he later agreed to stay for one more year and terminate his contract in 2021. The La Pulga transfer saga that many have heralded ends anticlimactically.

Now, the Argentine will try to enjoy playing football again in La Liga, in Barcelona, under his new coach Ronaldo Koeman.

"It has been a very difficult year, I suffered a lot in training, in games and in the dressing room," Messi was quoted as saying from the YouTube channel Goal, Monday, September 7.

"Things have been very difficult for me and times have come when I am considering looking for new ambitions," continued the Argentina captain.

Messi believes, with the new atmosphere, he will have a greater chance of finding happiness.

But Messi then canceled his intention to leave. He must now try to find joy in the Catalan capital.

After going through the 2019/2020 season without a trophy, Messi will try to bring Los Blaugrana back to winning ways.

But above all, there is one thing he likes more than victories and trophies. And that's a big PR for Barcelona. What is that?

If he is to stay until his contract expires next summer, then the club must ensure that their star is happy at Camp Nou and does not regret his decision to stay there.
