Conditions were chaotic when Lionel Messi’s father and agent Jorge Messi arrived in Barcelona on Wednesday morning.
According to the Spanish press, Jorge Messi is expected to meet with the club’s management in Barcelona on Wednesday to discuss the stalemate between the great club and its great star. Lionel Messi has wanted to leave the club, although he has a contract with Barcelona and basically lasts until June 30, 2021.
Jorge Messi arrived in the Spanish city around eight in the morning on Wednesday. He had flown from Messi’s hometown of Rosario in Argentina on a private jet, according to Marca.
In Barcelona, he is now expected to have a meeting with the club’s president, Josep Maria Bartomeu. In recent days, Messi has also not attended training after it became clear that he wants to leave Barcelona.
The background is Lionel Messi’s discontent with the club where he has played his entire career.
On August 25, Barcelona confirmed that Messi wanted to leave the club. At that time, several Argentine and Spanish media had mentioned that Messi had sent an email to the club in which he expressed his desire to leave the club.
According to Spanish soccer journalist Guillem Balague, Messi and his representatives claim that a clause in the contract with Barcelona gives him the opportunity to leave the club at the end of each season.
VG spoke before the weekend with the football agent who made Barcelona choose Messi when he was 13 years old. He was clear about the star player’s discontent.
– Messi has been dissatisfied for two or three years, says Josep Maria Minguella to VG.
This summer, Barcelona also made a big bang against Bayern Munich in the Champions League play-offs. The 2-8 loss was the first time the club conceded so many goals in the history of the Champions League.
