Hajer Aksenji, the President of Inter Media, recently addressed the potential future of Lionel Messi, outlining possible arrangements for the Argentine star should he eventually retire. Aksenji emphasized that the timing of Messi’s departure is not immediate, stating that it is premature to suggest he will cease playing at any point. The discussion focused heavily on planning for the club’s future trajectory following Messi’s potential exit.
Aksenji noted that while the timeline for his retirement remains under Messi’s sole decision, the club must prepare for the era after his playing days conclude. Regarding his professional relationship with the club, Aksenji suggested that the ideal scenario would involve Messi continuing some capacity with Inter even after retiring from active play. However, he clarified the existing structural limitations.
According to current MLS regulations, Messi would be prohibited from assuming the role of a co-owner. Despite this restriction, Aksenji maintained that, eventually, Messi would acquire a stake in the club’s ownership structure, becoming a shareholder. The statements provide a detailed look at the club’s long-term vision for the global icon.
While the physical limitations of the sport mean that playing years are finite, the discussions surrounding his legacy suggest a continued, multifaceted connection between Messi and Inter beyond his playing career. The conversation underscores the depth of his bond with the organization, even when considering the rules that prevent him from holding certain executive titles.
