His career can end terribly and he knows it too well!
A club that has been existing since 1899 will fade because one messi left?
Was Barca not doing good before Guardiola modified the team to make messi what he is today?
Xavi and Iniesta literally played for messi. They made old and new players flow their game towards messi

With messi on the team, what did they win this past season?

They might struggle for one season, but they will surely bounce back in the next whether messi leaves or retire at the club.

They should sell him already you guys don’t know this South Americans there are just like African players( money grabler) all those money that suppose to go to Barca Fc as club, Messi and it’s father will demand it has personal signing fee before signing for any club just like Neymar....Barca has nothing to lose there should demand for money.
And should be nothing short of world record signing fee...

He would have made the request in June and not necessarily leave at that time when the season was still on. Ofcourse he will walk... after his contract expires by next year!
I'm also sure there are other clauses that would have made it impossible for him to walk free even if he did make the request in June sef... it is him that'll have to go to court to request his freedom. No club will be foolish enough to sign him while he still has a contract running.

What's tha business?

You are missing the main point and the most important thing in this argument.

There's is a clause in his contract that allows him to leave for free at the end of every season.
Now Barca are saying that clause should have been activated in June cos that's when seasons normally end. But Messi and his team are saying the season ended in August, which is technically right.

This previous season was extended and it ended in August.

The case will be settled in court, and it Will be a very easy case. Depending on what's in the Contract, if it's "June" or "end of the season"

Of course La liga are throwing their weight behind Barca cos if he leaves, the league will be more or less like the eredivise.

The clause was that he has to inform the club 10 days before the end of a season which he didn't if we look at it from the angle of extension because champion league ended before he invoked the clause which automatically makes that clause invalid.man city is trying to please both parties involved that why they are negotiating with Barca else they would have announced him as their player since they have had a personal agreement with messi. Personally I feel its messi's pride and authoritative attitude on coaches that made him ask for transfer because he has seen someone who is not on the same page as previous coaches including stating categoricallythat Luis has no place in his team not even as a substitute else he is going to stay
Alary:

Noo ,I think you are wrong there, I believe the reason the matter may end in court.
Fifa has already expanded the transfer window from June because of convid19. So many players contract expired in june 2020 but because of covid-19 they have t continue playing beyond june because of the clause Fifa introduced in may to tackle the transfer logjam.If Barcelona claims the the agreement has expired in june as the claim,then how on earth they play some players whose contract expired by june when the league and champions league were expected to have ended .So if Barcelona win the case in court, that means most leagues that complete their season after convid19 with a player that his contract expires in june transfer window will have the league title revoked for fielding an ineligible players.
And for the 700 million euros, taaa, which club can pay such a huge sum of money for a 33 year old?Not man city ,not Man utd, not PSG, how much is there profit after tax 2019/2020 ? couple with the ripple of covid-19 effect,if they do they will have to open there book to Fifa FFP.The only league that can do the crazy move is the Chinese league, those one get money like sand and the can spend it on messi .

10 days before the end of the season which he didn't
jaxxy:


There is a claim to wait for the end of season out of respect or agreement based on delays in the league due to the pandemic. This is very normal for sm1 of Messi’s status.

If the club can not honor that they don’t deserve his loyalty and understanding either. Not everyone will activate their clauses b4 June definitely unless preplanned for sm obvious reason.


Messi reserves the right to leave based on the league extention.

Messi leaving is not the issue here but the business side of Spanish league is part of the big issue. The money, the TV rights pricing, Barcelona FC shares, match tickets and many more.
For me messi agent( his dad) messed things up for him, u don't have to be loyal in football, see urself as a machine that need to perform when called upon. Also Know the implication of every statement in any legal document u sign. Why will messi sign a contract with that huge amount as release pay off clause (no good agent will allow that). Any good proactive agent will activate ur free transfer clause every June because u don't have to be 100% loyal to a club.

Any club interested in Messi can negotiate the clause price( to pay some in cash and rest with 4 player), but seriously no club in the world with present Covid 19 economic impact will let go £700 million bond. And any club paying that huge amount for messi should sack the coach if he draws any match. All the season match should be a win with not less than 2 goals margin.

Wish GOAT Messi the best in his mission impossible. LOL

Dont mind messi he thinks he can use the back door.Every club is at alert to see the scape goat to bless Barca with his buyout
clause
DirtyGold:

Joke or no joke, the club has said the clause should have been activated in June... that's what was signed in the contract. And no, there's no new contract anywhere, it is the same one that's still running.

Laliga also supports the club so, you can choose to escort him to the fifa court of arbitration if you're so inclined and passionate about the matter grin grin

Not easy keeping an unhappy player in the team. Barca should sell him to Man City for 90m pounds. They should start the rebuilding process.

Thank you if Barca failed in paying him that huge weekly package he would have sparked thunder and brimstone so it's a 2 way stuff enjoy the big money and when the consequences of big pay raises bear in mind that its going to be serious

Thing ain’t done that way bro. Football is serious business with lots of money involved. It is not about sentiment.

Who is will pay them €700m? Only a fool will. Let them go to court or FIFA. If Messi wanted to leave mid season they will cry foul, he stayed till end of season they bring up issues. He will not walk free bt he definitely won’t be paying no €700m. And he will walk. It’s obvious his loyalty this far means nothing to them.

The question here is, why dint he activate it in June as stipulated in the contract... he only made this decision because of the 8.2 drubbing in the hands of bayern and thst is selfish of him... players announce that they will leave even b4 the season is over...y dint he announce it in June... ronaldos wasnt messy cos he activated it as stipulated in his contract...u cant just wake up and say u are off...even inbsnks and offices , u must announce 3 months b4 leaving... that messi guy has a wicked heart ... if not for barca he wudnt b who he is today ... the ronaldo u guys curse every minute has never had a messy contract...even at united when he wanted to leave ...united dint agree , he had to play 3 more seasons and won then the CL b4 they let him go

Did corona virus affect Ronaldo or the season when he wanted to leave? Players like Ronaldo and Messi only leaves end of season. If corona affected it then it must be acknowledged. It cud have been same scenario with Ronaldo or top player. And yes Ronaldo still had a dirty experience leaving Madrid.

Contracted ended with end of season. He had and still has no plans to stay. Corona virus delayed the season so his contract is automatically affected and delayed by it also.

I feel Messi acted on impulse after the major loss to Bayern Munich and decided to leave Barcelona so soon. He should have calm down and thought deeply about it, he should have even spoken privately with a lawyer on the different possibilities before he came public about leaving the club. Now, he is at this stage and cannot withdraw because of the whole publicity attached to it.

Whatever the case, I wish him all the best!
