Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[Coatigan]

He did not seriously force it, we were used.

That is a quite an oversimplification, and not particularly right.

We weren't 'used', as he got nothing out of that episode, no new contract.

He did put in a transfer request, he also formally tried to terminate his contract, as per his clause, only for Barcelona and La liga to reject it on a covid delay technicality. He challenged it with La liga, who advised it would end up in court. He didn't pursue it further, the consequences being big both for him and for us, including a potential ban for him and a 700m fee for us, after what could be a couple years of legal battles. After the whole cas debacle, that was the last thing the club would have wanted or needed, even if he had been prepared to go through it hinself.

Didn't happen, too late now. But no room for writing our own narratives.

Wanting to win the Euromillions rather than the National Lottery is just normal human behaviour. He's not greedy.

As if anyone on here was such a purist tgat they'd choose football over financial security for your family.

I am willing to prove this by winning the jackpot. :-)

Messi brings money back into La Liga. If Tebas is blocking the move wouldn’t be surprised to see him somehow leave his position, although I don’t really know how La Liga works. Especially with the Vini race rowl at the moment and his very vague messages about it.

Money talks, Messi is money to a struggling league.

Your honestly delusional if you think Messi's family doesn't already have financial security - for life.

It might be "normal behaviour" but it's still greed.

Nowadays, greed is normal behaviour, that's the unfortunate reality of the quality of people of this generation.

Exactly,how much is enough he had his chance and it didn’t come off let Chelsea or Saudi or Qatar throw obscene amounts at him,but I will say this if if we are suddenly and strongly rumoured to be back in for him there would be uproar and clubs demanding it’s stopped ..

Like people weren't greedy in the 80s or the 60s or the 30s... Lol.

Just read Barca are in talks with Miami to do a dodgy deal where Miami sign Messi then loan him to Barca for 18 months the dodgy wankers.
