Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[dadv1]

I don't know what is true but SPORT said: Messi and Guardiola are meeting at Barcelona.

Jugones: Messi se reunirá en Barcelona con Guardiola

Leo tendrá un encuentro con el técnico del Manchester City en la ciudad condal

There's more info leaking out now that suggest the 'change in situation' is more about strategy than intentions - nothing to suggest he has changed his mind about leaving or going to City. The change is to engage Bartomeu to part more amicably.

The Bartomeu ploy about resigning for him to stay was the first move, this appears to be Messi's counter move. He's the Goat, nothing comes easy in this game of chess & the enormous impact his exit incurs

Thanks mate - that makes much more sense.

Lionel Messi does not want a confrontation with Barcelona and has ordered his lawyers to meet with the club's leaders to negotiate a way out. Bartomeu will explain that Messi is very important for the new cycle and will sell for the release clause.

However good he is, I don't think we should be paying 50m plus for 12 months.

He signs for 2 years with us and them possibly off to NYCFC and the MLS great.

But 12 months, not for me.

Eh. Read his post again.

it was a bit fucking obvious Barca would be like that wasn't it? Fuck me I hope these idiots don't make a living chatting shit on twitter

Kahldoon insisted typical city was dead and then we did typical city at the atalanta game with walker in goal as we had no keeper left ! That was so us lol

The club have to give us “old” supporters something every now and then to top off the endorphins.

Messi handed in a transfer request. It's highly unlikely that he has taken this back. What seriously can happen to change this? The issue is what Barcelona's board does next. The natural move would be to extract max. value from City.

Let's be clear if Messi stays at Barca then its because he wants to and has had a change of mind. If he truly wants to go then does anyone really think Barca can hold on to him. In the end Barca will have to negotiate they would have no choice. A messi who is fully determined to go does not play for barca next year.
