However, he added that the decision was not his to make.
“Messi is the best player of the last ten years or more. It’s incredible to watch him play. But his contract runs until 2028 and mine until 2027… so there’s no case,” Flick said.
Barcelona president, Joan Laporta has consistently said Messi would not return to play for the club.
He has hinted that a massive tribute would be organised for the club legend once the Camp Nou has been fully renovated.
