There will, however, be a need for reinforcements among those who are just falling short of their targets. The few deals that could take place in January 2023 may, therefore, be big ones.

Las Vegas? Miami? Where will Messi finish his career
How much easier it would have been if everyone had listened to Ferran Soriano in 2005. Barcelona would have a solution to its salary crisis, MLS would have a better deal with broadcasters, and Messi would know precisely what he would do after Barca. But the conservatives from Catalonia insisted on their own, and the commercial director did not sign a contract with the head of the MLS, Don Garber.
