Lionel Messi Unlikely To Change Mind On Barcelona Exit, Says Presidential Candidate

News 18  

Lionel Messi is unlikely to change his mind about leaving Barcelona, the club’s presidential candidate Victor Font has said. Messi rocked Barcelona last month when his lawyers told the club he wanted to activate a clause in his contract that would allow him to leave for free before the 2020-21 season. “Unfortunately the club has not been able to deliver on the promise of building a competitive team.” Messi, 33, last won the Champions League with Barcelona in 2015 and an 8-2 humiliation at the hands of Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals last month was the final straw for the six-times world player of the year. “That’s why we’ve been working on a project and we need people to lead that who come from the world of football.” Lionel Messi’s father and agent headed to Barcelona on Tuesday for what Argentine media said was a meeting with club president Josep Maria Bartomeu.
