That clause ended in June. Hence the disagreement between Messi and Barcelona. He missed the June deadline because of the extended season.

This is an exceptionail season due to the pandemic.

Actually on reflection I maybe cant see Pep going for this. He is accused of not being able to win/progress the CL, especially without Messi. Is he really going to just admit he cant do it without Messi?

I can’t imagine he cares what people, especially the media, say about his accomplishments.

Barça are playing games, they know they are on thin ice with his contract. The season was extended and he therefore couldn’t let them know that he wanted a move In June as they still had 13 games to complete in the league and were still in the Champions League. Barça are coming over as extremely desperate. It is not a good look for them.

If that’s the case, that is so fucked up

I don’t think Pep would give a flying one as to what the press thinks.

Can you explain how agents will treat negotiations with Barcelona going forward? Barca still remains a dream club for any players to join regardless of Messi.

Agents represent their clients. Players can be blinded by the bright lights but from a business POV, behaviour the likes of which Barca is exhibiting has to be taken into consideration, especially by the big stars. Some get cast aside like Suarez, or sold, like Neymar and many get fed up with the intensity and politics in the end - Pep with Rosell, Messi with Bartomeau. They don’t so much fall out of love with Barca as get sick of her two faces.
