Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

I think the statement will be that his desire is to leave but it's hard in the current circumstances and then city will put in a bid and test the waters.

Given Messi Senior’s statement and the fact he hasn’t been to training all week, I’d say Messi staying at Barca is the least likely of all possible scenarios. All the crap being spouted about him staying just indicates the desperate position Barca and La Liga find themselves in. Cool heads are needed and all will be well - Messi is City bound:)

You can have 17/2 on him coming now.
1/12 he stays .
Thats a significant shift by any stretch.

What if he comes out and says the opposite ...

then a lot of reasonably reliable journalists would have made themselves look like complete idiots for no reason

Ahh well! That was fun. Right now, Grealish anyone?

 

[SleepingBlueTiger]

Been clear for a while Messi isn't ready to go to court and Bartomeu won't let him go. Lot of talk and overhyped news but in the end it just comes down to club refusing to sell.


Hopefully we can finally now move back to our original transfer plan now that we know we ain't going to be paying a huge sum to Messi. I really hope we can get at least 3 more faces in.

Remember how Messi's dad was supposed to release a statement in lien with what Barca said.
And then didn't?
I'm just saying

Yeah was going to post something similar. 1.08 no transfer on betfair. Think he's staying.

He’s due a £60m loyalty bonus at the end of next year as well.

Really? Bloody hell, it's madness.

bechler confirms.

Did he confirm that Messi is staying? His tweet just says that announcement will be in 21 minutes and it will be the final resolution of the Messi case.

 

[PragueBlue]

bechler confirms.

All he's confirmed (as far as I can see) is that he will make a statement at 5.
