At 18:00 on Friday, Messi finally spoke and announced: “I’m staying at Barça! I never go to the pitch with the club I love! “He says it in a video interview with“ Goal.com ”.
Previously, events were hasty
Friday, September 4, 2020, 2:20 p.m.: The Messi clan publishes a statement in which Father Jorge affirms that the transfer fee of 700 million in his son’s contract is not valid and that Leo can leave the club for free during this transfer period.
Friday, September 4, 2020, 3:00 pm: The “TyC Sports” portal, always well informed about Messi’s affairs, writes: “Exclusive! Messi stays in Barcelona! “
One after another: All the Catalans hope to stay on Thursday. The Argentine announcer “TyC Sport” reveals that the six-time world footballer would like to stay with the Catalans for at least one more year. He wanted the big out of his heart club and not disappear out the back door.
Turn after just one day
24 hours later, the world of soccer looks different. Jorge Messi, father and counselor of Leo in personal union, publishes a statement from which it can be interpreted that Messi does not want to play in Barcelona next season.
Papa Messi does not explicitly say whether his son wants to stay or leave. To do this, he points to the Spanish league. This had recently strengthened FC Barcelona’s back by confirming that the notorious 700 million transfer fee on Messi’s contract is still valid.
There is also a clause in Messi’s contract that states that the player can unilaterally terminate the contract before the end of the season in June and switch to a free transfer. Messi did that. The catch: the end of the season. The 33-year-old resigned at the end of the season, but only in August. Does the clause apply or not?
Can Messi go free …
Jorge Messi says yes! His statement, written to the president of the League, Javier Tebas: “We do not know which contract he analyzed and on what basis he came to the conclusion that the termination clause should no longer apply.” It must be an obvious mistake on the part of LaLiga. The league is even accused of impartiality by the Messi clan.
He is sitting. Because a bet on FC Barcelona seems different. One would like to get the Argentine superstar (!) Out of the Barça contract for free during this transfer period.
… or will it stay?
But that shouldn’t be that easy, the return coach will come right away. Just minutes after Jorge Messi’s statement, the Spanish league reacted and reaffirmed that the transfer fee of 700 million is still in force. For Messi this means: If he wants to terminate the contract, he will have to sue his heart club.
Almost at the same time, the Argentine portal “TyC Sports” launched the following bomb: “Exclusive! Messi stays in Barcelona! “Reason: The magic flea does not want to separate from his great love in an argument. Which in the end he himself also says. (Rab)
