I don't think it will drag on too long. Barca need to rebuild that squad. Dragging this out will only take energy away from what's required there and loosing him from the wage bill will impact the money they can spend so they need to know sooner rather than later, otherwise it only gets worse for them. His minds made up on the move, he wouldn't have gone this far if he wasn't sure. Bartomeu's play was obvious. He might change his mind, you never know, but with the current board still there nothing will have changed so why would he stay?

I think maybe they're trying to push him to get to Barcelona training on Monday and hoping that that will start to tug at him and potentially change his mind. Alternatively trying to make it so that he refuses to train and looks the bad guy.

Either way I think it's got great potential to backfire. Every day he's made to train or play in Barca colours he'll be doing it under duress, it would make you furious.
 
Honestly, yes. This is the exception to an otherwise cast-iron rule.

This is a guy that will still be the greatest player of all time when we’re on death’s door. And he will have worn the City shirt. You will want a nice, visual memory of that, trust me. Get it printed, wear it with disbelieving pride, and get it framed and on your wall once he moves to NYC. Lionel Fucking Messi.

I love the way Messi has even "signed" this post at the end ;)
 
I reckon if Messi has recorded a statement/interview then Bartomeu will be sweating bullets.

I imagine it will hit the notes of what Messi's given to and done for the club and how it'd be fair to let him leave on his terms.

Talk of Bartomeu putting the ball in Messi's court, he'll return it like one of those bastard Federer back hands.
