Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

Lionel always seems to find them when he has a chance to move on.

Currently, Barcelona are the ones coming up with the excuses. He is away at a tournament, saying nothing.

Expect Messi to get either a 10 year or lifetime contract play two years get payment spread out

If he wanted to leave, in my opinion he would have said goodbye to the fans at the end of the season.

Why would he wait until now?

I can't help but feel this is all a dance showing the fans that Messi wanted to stay, the club wanted to keep him. They did everything they could but FFP rules just would'nt allow it.

I just don't see how the rules don't get relaxed and Covid is the perfect excuse for them, LaLiga can't afford to see Messi rock up in the Premier League.

Without a contract

I'm sensing that this friendly we're playing them in must be some sort of charity fundraising game to help them out. No other credible explanation.

I think it's already been mentioned that would be against the rules

So Messi can say goodbye

At least there’ll be no gap in his NI contributions while he’s “out of work” ;)
The Spanish clubs probably still don’t pay any despite getting caught a few years ago.

I’d imagine the revenue it’ll bring in will be about 0.00001% of their debt so not sure it’ll help that much.
