After month of controversy over his future at the club, Lionel Messi has finally returned to training with Spanish football club, Barcelona for the first time.
A picture of the 33-year-old Argentine forward posing in a pink shirt of their third kit for 2020-21 was shared by the Catalan club via its official Twitter handle on Monday.
ESPN reports Messi will train individually for the next few days, per La Liga’s strict coronavirus protocols, before reintegrating with his teammates at a later date.
Recall the record-breaking footballer last month informed Barcelona he wanted to depart this summer and intended to utilise a clause in his contract which he and his representatives claimed allowed him to do so on a free transfer, Sky Sport reports.
Messi subsequently revealed in an interview, published on Friday, that he had reversed his decision, saying he could never go to court against the club to secure a move.
