Sounds like this will indeed go to CAS then? That doesn’t strike me as being something that can get done quickly? If at all this window? How does the contract issue get resolved?

 

[Gumzy97]

Why, what’s happening?

They went from 50 pages on Koulibaly to 70, all because a guy who has info on their forum said

(Koulibaly 70m) new cb soon.

[blueinsa]

I feel the footballing world is about to see the real power behind us as a club.

TH has posted a few times saying that his contact is VERY confident that this will happen

Barca are pissed at us (no negotiatons at present) -

Messi is holding firm and not changing his mind about leaving.

IF he leaves it WILL be to us

Oh and there has been some positive movement on Koulibaly as well potentially.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

We need to resurrect Johnnie Cochran

 

[simon23]

Only the penitent man shall pass.

We can't look just yet, our eyeballs may yet melt...

Indian Jones references now!

 

[Decepticon]

Pep wants him on a plane next week!!!!

This could get very ugly in the next 48 hours.

The contact in Abu Dhabi says he is ours.

Absolutely zero reason to doubt him either.

Bloody hell. I'm gonna stop posting tonight or I won't get any sleep.

Sounds like more encouraging movement on Koulibaly too.

 

[OB1]

“Feed the GOAT and he will score” simply HAS to be Messi’s chant.

I tweeted that this afternoon.

 

[Gumzy97]

Napoli fans are talking now as though Koulibaly has actually gone.

 

[KennyG]

Rodri plus cash for Felix and we are good to go.

 

[BringBackSwales]

So this could end up in the courts.

Im sure we would want to negotiate with them but IF they flat refuse where does this leave us and Messi - they could make him stay and hold him to his contract IF they are within their right to do so by the wording of that contract.

Khaldoon needs to get the big boys that did the CAS case onto this to lend a hand ;0)

Do that and get him on a free in a year

 

[blueinsa]

Posturing by Barca to appease fans and members.

This deal is all but signed between the clubs imo. They know he is gone and they know we are the destination.

 

[Jonsilfab]

Rodri plus cash for Felix and we are good to go.

Why do you still try?

 

[Decepticon]

Because Messi is adamant he's leaving for nowt and Barca are now on a war footing with City as a result.

There is presently no negotiation between the two clubs as a result.

I will interested to see what comes out of the Barca press tomorrow.

Fuck em, let's take them to court then!

 

[BringBackSwales]

Get
Out
A
Tissue

 

[Neville Kneville]

We don't need to deal with Barca at all surely?

Messi either leaves for free or buys his contract out ?

Either way, we are dealing with Messi, not them surely ?

 

[Kippax.]

So......

Messi leaves, Signs a 2 year contract with us, City then put on their website "We have Messi" (City have had no contact with Barcelona, because they believe that Messi is out of contract)

Barcelona says "Messi is still a Barca player"

What then?
