Messi decided to stay at Barcelona

According to the source, the striker, who wanted to leave the team, changed his mind over the past few days. The Argentine can stay in the blue-garnet camp for another season. The main reason for the decision is the reluctance of Barcelona to terminate the contract unilaterally. Messi has the opportunity to go to court, but the player does not want a conflict with the club.

On Thursday, September 3, Jorge Messi, the player’s father and agent, admitted that his son will work out a contract with Barcelona, valid until the summer of 2021. Before that, the player’s representative held a meeting with the club’s President Josep Bartomeu.

The main contender for Messi is considered to be English “Manchester city”. At the same time, on September 1, the head coach of “citizens” Josep Guardiola advised the striker to stay in “Barcelona”. He attributed this to the economic difficulties of the transfer.

Messi has been playing for the Catalan club since 2003. With the team, he became a ten-time champion of Spain and a four-time winner of the Champions League. In addition, the Argentine has six “Golden balls”. Messi decided to leave Barcelona because of dissatisfaction with the situation inside the team, and the defeat in the 1/4 final of the Champions League by Bayern — 2:8 brought his departure closer
