According to the theguardian.com: If the conflict is taken to court, Fifa can oblige the Spanish football federation to issue an international transfer certificate pending a resolution. The risk for any club that sign him in those circumstances is that if arbitration finds in Barcelona?s favour...

What a surprise. Everybody can see he is finished as a professional. I doubt he'd pass the medicals at another club

Have you seen what they earn here compared to similar players at other top clubs? "It has always been a dream since I was a kid to play for Barcelona one day."

I really like him and was one of the biggest supporters of this transfer. I thought he was the right choice as replacement for Iniesta. Thing is, some years later, I see it differently. He just doesn't come across as the type of player who leads a team. Neither as a captain like Puyol nor as a...

He is, but City is copying Barcelona since day one. They are dreaming of this for a very long time. Txiki as their director of football, Guardiola as their coach. Similar style. They won't let this chance slip away now that Messi is ready to leave his thought-to-be-lifetime-club.

If Messi goes to City, Su?rez goes to United.

Was thinking the same. Griezmann, Coutinho and Messi doesn't make sense after saying players will play in their natural positions.

Now we know why Jorge Messi bought a house in Milan. He'll earn millions with Leo's move and won't have to pay taxes for it by simply paying €100.000 to the Italian taxman.

This. He can leave for free if he joins Newell's Old Boys, but he can't leave for free to a direct competitor (not that Barca is really competing in CL these days).

Messi sending the burofax of wanting to leave the club EXACTLY one year after Fati's debut. :fati:

If Bartomeu survives this, even Chuck Norris should be afraid of him.

They'd better have enough paper and ink in that fax machine.

True. No wonder though. One is an amateur athlete while the other is real sportsman. It's a lifestyle. You can have a body like Suarez and be at the top in your 20s when you are very good, but it surely will hurt you in your 30s. Suarez is not getting the max out of his body like many...

If Suarez wants to stay in Europe, he should go to Serie A. He can have some successful years there with 20+ goals. It is just time to move on for both parties. He is too expensive for a (luxury) joker and can have some good years as a starter at another club.

This. No more lax training sessions for the seniors. Recent CL history with Liverpool and Bayern shows that hard-working players and teams who act as a unit are the most successful. Barca needs to defend as a team and to attack as a team. Who isn't fit enough to do his fair share of work should...

:thumbsup: It's a pity that the like-button is gone.

.

Thank god. Maybe an interchanging role between Leo and him as #9 and #10 would be possible with real wingers on both sides.

These Bayern side could even become more dominant with Sane joining them. Davies - Sane on one side, Kimmich - Gnabry on the other side. Lewandowski in the middle. Damn. Could be that Kimmich moves back to the midfield once Thiago is gone.

True. Not only that. Club needs to get rid of some high earners first. According to Bartomeu the club made 200M less revenue. Given the fact that there was already little margin due to the salary cap of La Liga, I'm thrilled to see how they want to manage this. Pjanic will earn much more than...
