PSG star Leo Messi and Barcelona president Joan Laporta will both attend the Ballon d'Or gala tonight at the Théatre du Chatelet in Paris.

After a traumatic departure from FC Barcelona and one of the saddest farewell press conferences in history, Messi will meet Laporta again.

It will be the first time since the farewell appearance of Messi (where the greeting between the two was cold) that they will see each other again.

Laporta has always maintained the discourse that it was impossible and unfeasible to extend Messi's contract and comply with the financial 'fair play' rules in LaLiga.

As for Leo, he has maintained that his home will always be Barcelona and that his idea is to return in the future.
