Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[TheThirdDeano]

I’m posting about this at an alarming rate but one more for a while;
Just seems strange to me that Jorge Flies to Spain to renew or tell them his son is actually going to continue.
And Messi skips multiple days of training and Covid tests. completely unnecessary and I think there’s more to it that we’re going to find out yet.
But what’s in it for Messi staying, more money? A longer contract? Strange a man in Messi’s position is acting like this for those things alone.
I don’t buy the “wants to do right by his club” when the board have made him look a **** and all the other players aren’t remotely his level

Yeah, this. Feels like it never happened tbh

Yep, that’s what I was hinting at. Think tolmie got too giddy. There was no video to the fans at all.

I guess it’s over to the Isco thread. This year’s Messi thread seems to have gone the way of all the others. If the rumours are true that he is staying, we will presumably fall for it again next year so a bit of fun still to be had.

Why all the despair? All his dad said was that Messi could see out his contract. Could mean it's off, could be a negotiating tactic. Wait and see.

that full quote is open to interpretation maybe a bit of spin on it, do I think Messi will stay at Barca 75/25, Do I think there are still more twists and turns to this... yes

I'll still wait until something more concrete comes out.

This could easily be the Messi camp calling Bartomeu's bluff. Threatening to stay and leave for free.

Bartomeu would be happy with that I'm sure.

Tbh I dont think Tolmie was informing us wrongly as far as he knows, but I do wonder if someone has told him incorrectly.

@BillyShears had the same info, pretty sure it's true.

Bartomeu would be happy with that I'm sure.

He wouldn't because when he hands over the presidency with the club in debt the new president is going to come knocking on his door for the money.

Hope we at least make it clear to him that if he stays and Barca have another shit season, are out of the title race by March and suffer another embarrassing UCL exit then we're not gonna be there for him to run to.
