Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[Superace]

City haven't missed out on Messi, we simply choose not to pursue it this year.

Just watching his press conference on ssn....his kids didnt seem bothered watching him get upset lol

Fake tears maybe

To save me time scrolling back pages why can't he play for free & not be able to register?

Do you want him to shine your shoes as well, boss

So why not wait to see how things play out at Barca? Let's say they get to the 70% via player sales, they would presumably be able to register a player who is on a nominal/nil salary. I guess there is no reason Messi couldn't continue to train there to keep his fitness levels up. And if it doesn't work out, he then signs his PSG contract.

You're clearly living in La-la-land. Do you think that they didn't try to offload players before letting him go? Do you think that negotiating a contract with another club is an easy matter? Do you think that the clubs wanting him will wait until Barca fail to sign him? Jesus Christ...

Bluemoon must be home to more psychologists than any other forum on the interweb. Haha!

Dont know if youve ever been but paris is a shithole.

Every city has their ‘shit holes’. That’s socio economics for you.

You don't honestly believe the PSG players live & frequent in the deprived arrondissements just as much as the City players live in Moss Side or Rusholme.

Its a good job we're all fluent in Spanish.

I posted a translated screenshot above, only really have to scroll, or do you need me to do that for you as well?

Barca have to get their wage bill under a certain number this season. Even with Messi gone, they can't hit that number so they can't register any new players.

It's not just their wage bill. It's wages, including senior non playing staff, plus amortisation. All of those have to be under €200m before they can register players. Griezeman, Dembele & Coutinho alone account for €144m just in amortisation, before any wages are taken into account.

Wtf.....how can they stop him signing for anyone else???

Same case as when they went to court over Neymar. They won't be able to stop it, but it'll be a massive lawsuit, expect the return of Super league and calls for UEFA to elaborate on FFP rules allowing it to happen. Will be rather, Messy, no pun intended.
