The Argentine superstar had been vying for his team-mate’s departure
after deciding the Spaniard is incompatible with his playing style.
However, according to Spanish news outlet Don Balon, Messi has now
had a change of heart.
It’s suggested he’s concerned by Luis Suarez’s fitness.
The Uruguay international is struggling with a knee issue and Don Balon
reckon he might need an operation.
If Suarez is out of action, Barca will be short of strikers.
Ousmane Dembele is also sidelined and Gerard Deulofeu has been used
sparingly this term.





Despite Messi’s U-turn, it remains
to be seen if Alcacer would want
to remain at the Nou Camp.
The 24-year-old is a peripheral
figure at the club and a lack of
game time is damaging his
intentional prospects.
He’s been capped 13 times for his homeland and wants to feature at the
World Cup in Russia.
Alcacer was drafted in last summer, but he has underwhelmed.
Despite costing a hefty £26m, he made just 23 appearances last term
and scored six goals.

Reports earlier this week claimed Lille and Southampton are in the hunt.
Lille are keen to take him on loan in January with the view to a
permanent summer deal.
The Ligue 1 side’s director general Marc Ingla has reportedly travelled to
Barcelona to discuss the move.
Boss Marcelo Bielsa needs to bolster his striking options and he’s given
the green light for Alcacer’s arrival.
Barcelona's next match is at home to Malaga on Saturday evening.
