While many believed Lionel Messi could be on his way back to Barcelona in the summer, a Qatari club are planning a massive deal for the Argentine.

Al-Hilal are planning to lure the Argentine from Paris with a similar contract to Ronaldo, but ideally making him the highest-earned footballer in the country. This comes after Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent move to Al-Hilal’’s fierce rivals Al-Nassr who are reportedly paying the Portuguese international a whooping €200m/year, as per [AFP](https://www.goal.com/en/news/ronaldo-earn-400m-al-nassr-transfer-saudi-arabia-world-cup-ambassador/blte08178ab0b12429b). Laporta, however, remains optimistic about the summer transfer window and could potentially plan for Messi’s return.
