Following Barcelona’s, to say the least, scandalous exit from the Champions League when Bayern Munich beat the Catalan giant 8-2, the cleanup began immediately.
Coach Quiqe Setien was fired the day after the overtaking.
Then it was the turn of the sports director Eric Abidal.
After that, the protests against Josep Maria Bartomeu, president of the club, began to sound louder and louder.
Then the bomb exploded: Lionel Messi announced that he wanted to leave the club where he spent his entire career.

Bartomeu then offered to leave his post in exchange for Messi staying at the club, but the Argentine has so far rejected all attempts at reconciliation by the club. More and more information indicates that Messi will move to Manchester City, something that will be added on Saturday night.
RAC Sports reports that Messi has informed the club that he does not plan to attend tomorrow’s crown events, which officially kick off the new season.
FC Barcelona also confirmed to the AP news agency that it is not willing to let Messi leave the club prematurely. The contract between the parties is written until next summer.
