advantage or not, messi should jus stay in barca if goin to court is the onmy option of leaving the club, it would be a dirt on his legacy if he drags barca to court, i dnt expect him to trash all the legacy he built in barca for years jus because of his last 5 years...the beginning do not matter bt the end and history wont be fair to him if he tries such..
The point is that Messi doesn't need to drag barca to court, he has the legal right to terminate his contract unilaterally (according to this quoted clause in the contract states by his father) .barca will be the ones to drag him to court....Although I get where you are coming from,after all this years, the break up doesn't have to be bitter

another wahala...i think messi and hs father should try and avoid court case with barca..he should jus stay this last season, sign a pre contract with city and use this last season to give the fans a proper farewell..my opinion
according to this statement, Messi will have an advantage if it comes down to a court case

"Florentino already made 85m€ selling players that weren't even in the Real Madrid squad last year. He hasn't even officially sold a first team player yet

And Bartomeu is over here being forced to give up Luis Suárez, Ivan Rakitić, Arturo Vidal, and LIONEL MESSI completely for free because of the mess he created"

CuteMercury:
I love Messi so much but my love for Barcelona comes first before any player on earth. Who ever advised Messi to send that text or whatever of him leaving the club, has only done more harm than good "not to the club, but to Lionel messi" Now the fans are divided and if Messi leaves the club this season, Many fans of the club will not be happy with him. I am not here to usher blame to either Messi or the club but if he wanted to leave, he should have been advised to make an announcement that he will be leaving the club next year, that way a proper emotional goodbye ceremony will be given to him in his last match in camp nou. That way everybody wins, no bad blood. Next year is just around the corner. The way he suddenly announced it was a disrespect to his fans and the club and i am sure that a lot of people are not happy with him.
Messi sent a fax to the club so they can sit down and discuss terms before anouncing to the fans ,(I believe that was the plan,)who leaked this information to the press is the real culprit here. Messi wants the club to gain something from the deal and doesn't want to go to court, but the club is ademant about the release clause and don't want to entertain any offer from mancity even though Messi can trigger a clause that will let him hg free at the end of the season (although Barcelona will argue that it expired in juJu) but considering the fact that the people that adviced Messi are the same law firm that drafted the contract(barca had to sack them) then you will think that it will be in Barca's interest to come to the table...it's beginning to hurt us, news coming from lautaro's camp is that he is having serious doubt and VDB seams to have chosen man U....now Compare this with CR7 whose release clause was 1 billion pounds and still had 3 years left in his contact

You know once a while i will throw jabs.

But seriously you guys should not allow Messi leave. IF and BIG one if HE DECIDES AND INSIST to leave it should not be free.

Business before leisure
last I heard, the executive have instructed all board members not to answer calls from potential suitors...if Messi leaves for free, the board may face calls to resign, and from what I understand some members may go bankrupt as they have to shoulder the cost of loss or something like that
SportsThe Law Could Be On Messi's Side by Excallibur(op): 5:41pm On Aug 30, 2020
The ongoing dispute between Josep Maria Bartomeu and Leo Messi rolls on and, although Barcelona maintain that the player would have to pay his release clause to leave the club, the law could be in the Argentine's favour.

The burofax sent by Messi to Barcelona claims that his contractual agreement with the club allows him to leave at zero cost, which is being denied by the Catalan club as well as LaLiga.

However, Juan Ramon Liebana, a professor of law at University of La Rioja (UNIR) and member of the Arbitration Court of La Rioja, believes Messi will win the case.

Barcelona allege that there was a June 10 deadline for Messi to exercise that right of termination but, as the Argentine did not do so, the club considers the player to have renewed until June 30, 2021, while the player's lawyers rely on the fact that COVID-19 delayed all competitions, leaving the termination period open.

"That was for a transfer and not for rescinding the contract," Liebana told EFE, regarding the June 10 deadline.

According to Liebana, if the contract specifically states that date, Barcelona would be in the right but, if not, "it would enter the realm of interpretation, where Leo Messi will win for various reasons," he insists.

"Leo Messi's lawyers recall that the last competition that the Blaugrana played in, the Champions League, ended on August 23, so they assure that they are within time to have exercised the unilateral termination period of the contract," he explains.

Liebana believes that the clause in Messi's contract does not explicitly state a particular date of expiration but rather "within a period of X days" which would play in the Argentine's favour.

Furthermore, Liebana indicated that, in such a situation, Article 1281 of the Spanish Civil Code should be applied, which establishes that "if the words of the contract appear to be contrary to the evident intention of the relevant parties, the intention of the one under contract prevails."

"If the account offered by Leo Messi's lawyers, in which they maintain that the intention of both parties was to give a certain margin from the end of the Champions League to decide [his future] is true, the Argentine is right on this matter," he stated.

I was merely replying a Messi fan who claimed that the club didn't help Messi by bringing in top players. Messi cannot babysit anyone but as a club legend and captain, there's so much he could have done for new players coming in, so the club can get the best out of them. He didn't do anything.
to begin with, things like what... make the guy just go abeg, season begins in two weeks, we need new signings and I doubt that any world class player will want to come to a club in crises

The club hasn't done enough to help him? Like seriously? Tell me another club who has spent more money on players acquisition than Barcelona in the last five years. Big names have all arrived but since all attention is on Messi, they cannot adapt and Messi being captain of the club has done absolutely nothing to assist the players to adapt. Coutinho, Dembele and Grezimann are all big players before they joined but all have become ordinary player after joining. But we must blame the board for everything because everyone blames the board.
now you are blammin Messi for signings that flop,, like he should baby sit world class players to adapt to the club

Destiny delayed for a fucckking 33yr old, that's almost at the end of his playing career. What nonsense!

Maybe he thinks himself bigger than the club. All the embarrassing defeats we suffered, dude was part and parcel of that shameful team but he did nothing to change the situation. Everyone is quick to blame the board but major culprits who have consistently underperformed are being celebrated. Stop making it seem he shouldn't be part of those held responsible for the Barca slump. Infact, he's one of the people I hold responsible. If you think he's paid his due, then I'll say he should pay them again. Afterall he's on a massive contract, coasting home to millions of euros yearly. His services never came free of charge. Abandoning a club in times of crisis, one which you yourself was part of in making, is cowardly.

I want Barcelona to frustrate him so he knows no player, no matter who you are, is bigger than a club that's an institution. In few years, no one will talk about Messi as much as now but Barcelona will remain for a very long time.
spend time and energy to frustrate Messi at the expense of preparing for another season? Even if he stays, E will still pay him his salary (100m Euros) LoL do you honestly think that the socios will take the side of this disastrous board over Messi
