The novel of the imminent departure of Lionel Messi from FC Barcelona continues to add chapters as the days go by.
More later than the weekend, the Argentine star decided not to join the PCR tests that all his colleagues underwent, including the Chilean Arturo Vidal, because he no longer feels part of the institution.
After cardboard, La Liga came out to publicly support the Catalan team, detailing that it will even refuse to deliver the trans-Andean pass if he decides to unilaterally leave the ‘culé’ squad, ensuring that only Messi can leave if the termination clause is paid of 700 million euros.
Despite the threatening tone used by the Hispanic Federation, in Lionel Messi and his environment there is confidence that the link is over. The reason? Two lines from his last contract supporting his free-player theory, if he wanted to march.
The newspaper Sport had access to the document and revealed the phrases that make the Argentine so sure of his desire to leave Barcelona. “This compensation will not apply when the termination of the contract by the unilateral decision of the player takes effect from the end of the 2019/2020 season”, it shows.
That “from the end of the 2019/2020 season” is what the trans-Andean and his circle clings to, since the last one ended up out of date due to stoppages in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, they consider that Messi is ‘free’ at the moment.
It should be remembered that the last game of the Blaugranas in the recent and finalized season was against Bayern Munich, where they ended up falling 2-8. A week after the newsletter, Lionel notified by burofax that, supported by his contract, he was not going to continue in the entity. Barcelona admits that there was a clause that allowed the player to go out for free, but, they say, it expired on July 10.
Words more, words less, the truth is that the legal battle for Lionel Messi remains in force and with Manchester City attentive to every step to be able to sign the South American idol. It is not ruled out that everything ends in a FIFA court.
