Those pretenders are standing on the shoulders of a giant.They should just hand it all over
They have been stealing a living on the back of Messi. Same as Barca itself!!!

So are you saying that Barca drew up a contract on the 30th June?
The negotiations can't be concluded until Barca fulfill their wage cap obligations I assume

That’s probably true at the moment but not for the last two years when a new contract could have been signed at any point but wasn’t.The negotiations can't be concluded until Barca fulfill their wage cap obligations I assume

Have they presented one to him before?

Put it this way.
This time last year every in the know close to Messi was at it tweet after tweet that Messi will be staying another year, every other "tier" nobhead was at it.
This year?
Nish.
Why?

Doesn't seem to be any rumour or indication from the City side that we've been doing any work on signing him this summer. Quite the contrary situation to last.
At a guess, I'd say City have had enough of being used by Messi as a cudgel to whack money/concessions/Managerial changes out of Barca.
Would have loved to have had him any of the the last half-dozen times he was playing these games. But then it is extremely questionable as to how realistic the possibility of him coming here ever was. Even last year, which in retrospect just seems like anti-Bartomeu politicking.

Unless all the players take a 40 per cent pay cut - they have an insurmountable issue.

The rumour is that their wage bill is circa - £240m - so that's a mere £100m to save in a few weeks - they need to get George Osbourne in quick....
