Lionel Messi puts an end to all speculation about the change: In an interview with “Goal”, the 33-year-old Argentine announced that he would stay at FC Barcelona.
In recent days there has been a lot of speculation about when and where the magic flea might move. It is clear from Friday night: Lionel Messi will fulfill his contract with Barça, which is valid until June 2021. In an interview with “Goal” he did not suppress criticism of the club: “I was not happy and wanted to leave. But I was not allowed and will stay to avoid litigation. The club’s management, led by Josep Bartomeu, is a disaster ”.
The Argentine is particularly harsh with the words of the president of the Barça club: “It was a very difficult year, I suffered a lot in training, in games and in the dressing room. The president always said that at the end of the season I could leave if I wanted. In the end, he didn’t keep his word. ”Over the course of the season, he told the president that he wanted to go.
Despite these strong criticisms, Messi still wants to get the most out of his lifelong club: “I will continue in Barcelona and my attitude will not change no matter how much I want to leave.”
In fact, Messi had informed the Catalans on August 25 that he would like to move in this transfer window. Since then, the LaLiga club has always referred to the 700 million euro buyout clause, which must be activated so that the superstar can change. The opinion of Messi’s field that he could unilaterally dissolve the contract was not shared.
Just on Friday, Jorge Messi wrote in a letter to the league, in which he shared Barcelona’s opinion, that Messi could very well terminate the contract due to the delay in the end of the season.
Now all discussions are superfluous: Messi is fulfilling his contract, which is valid until June 2021, and does not seek a prior move.
