Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

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.

Don't think it's Barca who is taking anyone to court. It's just some section of fans is what I figured.

The article is 2 days old and clearly guess work

To be fair the article is quoting Marca as the original source who broke the whole Barca have parted ways with Messi before anyone else did earlier on Thursday.

I was on about the destination, mate, as fresh as that article was, it was an easy assumption to pitch his flag at city!

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...

Sorry I spoke mate. But if Messi is so desperate to stay at Barca, why not give it a shot. He'll have no shortage of suitors if it can't work out

Have to laugh at the 'Paris is a shithole' posts, yes, of course it is in some areas but in others, it's fcuking glorius and a truly wonderful place.

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

Is the correct answer.

I've not heard anyone from the club say we was interested in him or any tweets to confirm our interest.
Seems some posters on here are taking great joy by saying Messi rejected us once or twice.

We was never once or twice officially interested in him but don't let that spoil anything.

With all the money clubs lost through covid you would have thought la liga would have bent the rules to keep its star attraction

He’s holding out to see if we do the Kane deal

 

[SWP's back]

He's allegedly getting a €25m signing-on fee from PSG. Why the fuck does he need that?

Why do Tom Cruise and The Rock demand $30m for two months work filming a new movie? Because that’s what the market will pay. You know fully well how economics works which makes you last sentence rather redundant as you know the answer.

Well obviously he wants it, but he doesn't need it. I don't blame him for taking it. We both would but it kind of shows his attitude to Barca.

It's like someone who maxed out their credit cards and overdraft wondering why they can't pay for a holiday.
