Relax. This has been coming for a long time. A player doesn't make a decision like this one day, and then walk it back the next.

I agree mate I'm not fussed on what that you tuber said, more the storys that barca want the release clause or nothing. If messi really wants out they have to negotiate they will have no choice.

If FIFA decided it, I think they would only award Barca a fraction of what they are asking, so it would make sense to let Messi leave for a reasonable price.

But maybe they are hoping City will sign him & they will be awarded more, so will just gamble it & see.

But it's possible Messi may leave for nothing, of course.

What's this got to do with Fifa?

Genuinely don't think either party will want that, the President can't have a fan mutiny on his hands, he will go through all the PR crap, saying he did everything to make him stay but at the end of the day will reach a compromise with player and City.
 
TBH, these are all pointless updates trying to make news out of some random thoughts. Nothing will go further until Messi and his dad arrive at Barcelona and meet with the president.

If Barca insist on the release clause, I think Messi will do whatever it takes to get out.

FIFA could arbitrate on it, rather than him taking them to court.
 
Not claiming to be ITK but a source tells me that the plan is tonight Messi and Bartomeu will meet up to hash it all out, the idea is that by Monday they're all set and can put behind them the debate as to whether it's a muffin or a barm.

Bartolomeu is going to make it very painful for Messi to get away from Barca

Not necessarily. They may have decided that it is better to sever their relationship, and they know they are never going to get a fee for him. Barcelona's board are in a difficult position now. The player is unhappy and he is 33. Do they really want to continue to base their side around him? It's not working. The time has come to move on for all concerned. I can see City allowing Garcia and possibly Angelino to move to barcelona with an additional cash settlement. What else can a club do when a player makes such a stance?
