The relationship between Barcelona and superstar Lionel Messi looks to be breaking down once more.

Lionel Messi could potentially leave Barcelona on a free transfer this summer, but where will the Argentinian end up?

Last summer, the six-time Ballon d'Or winner dropped a bit of a bombshell.

After a lacklustre season with Barcelona, Messi sensationally revealed that he wished to leave the club.

What followed was a prolonged saga regarding the 33-year-old's future in football, with a move to Manchester City seemingly on the cards.

In the end, after Barcelona declared it would cost a club £625m to sign him, Messi reluctantly announced that he would be staying with the Blaugrana to see out the final year of his contract.

The battle between the Argentine and the La Liga giant had most football fans believing that the 2020/21 season would be his last in Catalonia.

But recently, the relationship between Barcelona and footballing legend looks to be breaking down again once more.

Things have arguably gotten worse since last summer when Messi pushed for a move following the ignominious 8-2 defeat by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

And after their feeble European exit to Paris Saint-Germain, the rumours that Messi will make a move this summer, have risen significantly, and Messi has been linked with a move to Manchester City, PSG, Inter Milan, or even the MLS.

You could argue every team on the planet would be improved by Messi's presence within it, but a deal will not be straightforward - as his gargantuan £112m-per-season Barcelona contract illustrates.

In case he still decides to leave, then where next?
