Is there any news as to whether City or Messi have secured or could obtain this international transfer certificate from FIFA?
I think it's working in a very different way,
say FIFA regulations:
"8 Application for registration:
The application for registration of a professional must be submitted together with a copy of the player’s contract. The relevant decision-making body has discretion to take account of any contractual amendments or additional agreements that have not been duly submitted to it.
9 International Transfer Certificate (ITC):
1.Players registered at one association may only be registered at a new association once the latter has received an International Transfer Certificate from the former association. ..."
EDIT:
Messi's contract with Barca has to be terminated somehow,
Messi has to sign a new contract with City (or elsewhere),
the registration is back office work.
