Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

arent they alleged to be hiding loads of debt in the Cayman Islands as well?

Yeah. And that was pre Glazers. Christ knows what this lot are up to O.o And they have the gall to call our owners. Though I suppose the best deflection when up to something is to accuse others... Wouldnt surprise me if they use the same 'lock-up' as the BBC.

Where that FC Barca twat now Messi gas cracked it at the paper and whoever leaked his contract? He's gone quiet

Think @Ric has said he is on an ‘break’. Hopefully a long one

PSG chief says club have a 'place reserved' at the table for Messi

The Ligue 1 champions are among a host of clubs eager to snap up the star this summer, with Manchester City and Inter Milan poised to put up a fierce fight to land the Argentine superstar.

'Great players like him will always be on PSG's list,' he admitted in an interview with France Football. 'Now is not the time to discuss or even dream of it.'

'We are seated at the table of those keeping tabs on it. In fact, not seated, but with a place reserved -- just in case. Four months is a long time.'

He did say that it is not the time to discuss or even dream of it. But i do agree with you that i would rather prefer he had kept his previous words : Messi is a Barça player and we don't talk about a rival club player.

On topic, Messi contract was absolutely massive. I wonder how much of a cut he would agree to take in his next contract.

If only United were a billion in debt as well. ;-)

That's going to happen

Messi wants to sue the newspaper:


His lawyers will ask questions to determine who leaked his contract. Only 5 people knew about his contract allegedly : Bartomeu, Grau, Tusquets and 2 unnamed persons.

Los abogados de Messi estudian demandar a Bartomeu, Tusquets y Grau

La publicación por parte de El Mundo del contrato de Messi por el que percibirá en cuatro años 555 millones de euros ha provocado que los abogados...

I can't see him stay there any longer. You can rejoice City fans.

Would love him to fuvk them of, i wonder if now the leaks can be pinned to the club so he can walk away now & not play again

Would be intresting if any of our in house lawyers would be able to comment on these leaks

This could get really dirty now & why the last weekend of the transfer window & not before

Could we still sign him this window ?????.

Could we still sign him this window ?????.

If we're ever going to sign him it's only going to be this summer.


Most accounts have City being willing as long as there's no transfer fee involved. We'd have to pay one for Messi to join at this point in time I believe.

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

Surely we can't be thinking of offering this washed up Argentinian dwarf anything like the unbelievable sums Barca have been paying him?

And no, he won't 'pay for himself' as the bulk of commercial sponsorships etc will go to him.

When does the transfer window close, what time ?
