Lionel Messi’s agent, after a two-hour meeting with his father Jorge Messi, informed Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu that Messi was not for sale. The 33-year-old Argentine star will not be able to leave the club.
According to the Spanish sports newspaper Marker, the meeting between Barcelona president Bartomeu and Jorge Messi took place in the afternoon at the Barcelona office in New Camp. Bartomeu was accompanied by Javier Bordas, one of Barcelona’s directors, and Jorge Messi was assisted by his other son, Messi’s brother and mentor, Rodrigo Messi.
Despite lengthy discussions, no agreement was reached between the two parties. Bartomeu said the player’s departure from the release clause expired on June 10, so Messi is a signed player for the new season and will have to enter practices. But it has not yet been incorporated into practice.
The Barça president has reiterated that the club will not take any initiative to release Messi under any circumstances, since he is the protagonist of Barcelona’s sports project and is under contract.
Messi’s desire to leave the club without fees has been reiterated in accordance with the terms of the contract sent through Bureaufax.
Neither party is willing to make such concessions in the current situation. Therefore, the matter, which has become increasingly complicated, can be taken to court.
