It simplifies things because rightly or wrongly, it's a tacit acknowledgment that the terms of his contract align with La Liga's interpretation now rather than the way his lawyers saw it. So paying a transfer fee or agreeing to a player swap (or both) now becomes the only practical option until May/June 2021.
It certainly does
But for me that should have been looked at scrutinised in great detail before this started
I would offer Angelino Garcia and circa 40 million deal done in the next 7 days or leave it
Very frustrating I’m sure for City as well

Hopefully @tolmieshairdo will have news later this week
 
Ironic that they think €25m for Garcia is too much for a player with 1 year remaining on his contract.......Just get the swap deal done and dusted!

Garcia doesn't even have a buyout clause for there to be irony

Only irony is that one player wants to leave Barca, the other wants to come back
 
The irony is that Bartomeu says That a Spain International La masia graduate isn't worth €25m because he has a year left yet a 33year old Messi is worth €700m

Perhaps you need to revisit the meaning of the word irony then. One has a contract with a transfer clause (700M), the other doesn't have any clause

As per Messi's representative his €700m bayout clause no longer exists he just didn't want to fight Barca in court!

And not only that what relevance does the boy out clause have to a players value? If a player has no clause then the selling club can set a value
