MESSI : THE PRESIDENT DID NOT KEEP HIS WORD. MESSI TO STAY AT BARCELONA.

 

Lionel Messi finally broke the silence and spoke about his decision to leave Barca. He said that his decision to leave wasn't due to Barca's loss to Bayern in the UCL quarter final. He said that he has been telling the president about it since the past year. The President did not give a proper response to Messi's request and kept delaying it. As a result, Leo sent a burofax to the club to make the request official.

Messi to stay at Barca.

He also told the reporter that the rumours and criticism about him, not being committed to Barca, hurt him. He was in pain after listening to the headlines, after he had given so much to the club.

Messi had to change his decision to leave Barca, as the president has made it clear that he can only leave Barca given that his release clause of €700 million is paid. Messi also said that the president did not keep his word. He thought he was free to leave at the end of the season.

Messi was looking for a new challenge in his career. He did not want to go to trial against the club he loves. So he has decided to extend his stay at the club for one more season. What are your thoughts on this? Comment below.
