Lionel Messi - v7

[Rassvet]

Maybe it?s best to just let Messi go, certainly if we can?t afford him.

For Messis sake I hope he moves to Man City. He would be great for them.

Renewing Messi required an effort that forced the club to weaken the squad and reduce competitiveness. Moreover, if they gave in to pressure and rejected LaLiga's agreement with the CVC fund, their situation would become even more complicated. (Marca)

A breakup seems best for both parties

Time to move this theme to other players.

Fake news, he is staying for sure. Marca is unreliable as it gets. There is nothing from Catalan media about this.

 

[BusiTheKing]

well it's now or never if he wants to experience playing at another club while still at his best. understandable that he'll have doubts. still think anto and the kids will keep him here.

 

[Rassvet]

Fake news. He is staying. Marca knows shit about this. There is nothing from Catalan media.

[RAC1] – Lionel Messi told Barcelona he would not sign a new contract. The Argentine does not see the sporting project and the club's economic situation in a favorable way

 

[Devils]

Stunning.

Probably got promised a load of shite from Laporta that was never going to be delivered.

So, with how long has taken, maybe Messi had enough time to think about whether the club is not good enough next season. He probably wants to win the Champions League one last time.... and he knows he's not going to do that here. It's apparently coming out now that it isn't just down to his salary and it's more down to the sporting project..... or lack of according to Messi.

Messi is staying but the CVC offer has a clause. No super league for the next 40 years. [ Marcelobechler ]

It isn't just Marca reporting this.

 

[Rassvet]

La Sexta | One of the reasons for not renewing the contract is that Messi does not like coach Koeman

 

[Rassvet]

Is rac1 a reliable source.

I think so

 

[BusiTheKing]

in hindsight Laporta should probably have pushed up that negotiation to before the Salzburg game

 

[Sterlingfan2000]

A point of conflict during today's meeting between Messi and the club has caused a slowdown in the negotiations. The Argentine's future is up in the air now. Messi wants more money [sport]
