Leo Messi could make a sensational Barcelona return next week against Racing Santander.
The Argentine midfield ace is flying back to Spain later this week after fully recovering from his foot injury and admits he's "desperate to play" again for Barca.
"I have passed every test and I'm delighted," Messi told DiarioSport . "I have a week left here then I will travel to Barcelona. We have worked hard and I am satisfied with my fitness."
Messi could be handed a second-half cameo against Racing in preparation for Barca's Champions League showdown with Liverpool.
"I'm desperate to play again. I've trained very hard in these last three months and nothing is better than playing."
Asked about fresh interest from Inter Milan, Messi was adamant: "I'm not bothered about that. The affection of the people of Barcelona is worth more than any big contract."
