[Sport]Leo Messi puts the brake on: his father now recognizes that he could stay at FC Barcelona

The bizarre relationship between Leo Messi and Barcelona in recent weeks has found a new (and unexpected) chapter this Thursday. After not reaching an agreement on Wednesday at the meeting that the player's father held with the club, Jorge Messi has confirmed a piece of news that has been going on in Argentina in recent hours: that Messi is considering going back and playing the year that he It remains of contract with the Barça.

 

"Are you evaluating that Leo is still at Barcelona?" A journalist from Cuatro asked the footballer's father when he entered a garage with his car. "Yes", has been the response of his father and representative. Since the early hours of the morning in Spain, Argentine media have already pointed to this possibility. What Leo is not evaluating is accepting the offer to renew for two years that Josep Maria Bartomeu made him.

 

Apparently, the player's lawyers are not so clear now that he can leave the club for free, as was his intention when sending the famous burofax on August 25. They are also faced with the difficulty that no club, not even the most economically powerful in Europe, seems willing to welcome them into their squad if they do not reach a friendly agreement with Barça first.

 

Meanwhile, the first team continues with the preseason work, and all parts of this story count that Barça will not compete again for three weekends, when the League is due to start against Villarreal at the Camp Nou.
