Lionel Messi contract situation explained: How can he leave Barcelona on a free?

Updated: Aug 28, 2020



What's changed? What is Messi's exit option? Can he leave for nothing? Could this end in the courtroom?


Lionel Messi submitted a transfer request to Barcelona in a dramatic sea change that leaves the Argentine's two-decade stay at the Nou Camp in jeopardy.


Tuesday's stunning announcement has left the world of football in frenzy, but how did we get here and what's the likelihood of Messi actually parting company with Barca?


Here, with the help of Sky Sports News reporters and Spanish football experts, we delve into the inner legal workings of Messi's Barcelona contract, the narrative underlining his transfer request and whether there is a club in world football who could pull off what would be the signing of the century.


Throughout the years, Messi has not been afraid of voicing his frustrations with the Barcelona board and the direction the club has been taken.


The club's questionable recruitment policy was laid out for all to see at the end of the 2019/20 as Barca relinquished their La Liga crown to eternal rivals Real Madrid before their humiliating 8-2 Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern Munich.


Quique Setien was relieved of his duties in the immediate aftermath and replaced by club legend Ronald Koeman, but Spanish football journalist Alvaro Montero claims an unconvincing first meeting with the Dutchman resulted in Messi tendering his transfer request.


"The main thing is that the meeting last Friday with แบล็คแจ็ค was not as good as they expected for a football club like Barcelona," he told Sky Sports News. "The meeting with Koeman didn't go well, from Messi's opinion.


"Koeman told him that he didn't count, for example, with players such as Arturo Vidal or Luis Suarez, and Messi didn't like that.


"The way of Koeman treating him in the media and the way he has expressed the way he wants to work in Barcelona, wasn't liked by Messi, so I think that was the situation." บาคาร่า 3 ใบ
