It will be difficult for me to play with Neymar again - Messi

Inter Miami superstar, Lionel Messi, has admitted that it will be "difficult" for him to line up alongside Neymar Jr again.

The two footballers first played together at Barcelona, before Neymar moved to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017.

Messi and Neymar were then reunited at PSG, before the Brazilian left for Al-Hilal.

There have been recent speculations claiming they could play together again in the MLS, especially after Luis Saurez signed for Inter Miami.

But Messi said: "We talk often. We even have a group chat with the three of us, including Luis. Ney speaks perfect Spanish.

"A little message to recruit him? No, I don't know. The truth is, it's difficult now".

"He's in Saudi Arabia, and I think he has a year left on his contract. He had a tough year, where he was injured for a long time. So, it's difficult now".

"After that, I don't know. Life takes so many turns that anything can happen, but I think, for now, no."
