Lionel Messi submits transfer request to Barcelona management. It is not a secret that Lionel Messi wants to leave F.C Barcelona but now will it be simple to exit?
In his contract there is a clause which allows him to leave for free with immediate effect. Barca suffered a heavy defeat 8 goals to 2 and the team which punished them was Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals on 16 August.
Bayern Munich also won this year’s champions league after beating PSG 1 – 0 on the finals , leaving Mbape and Neymar junior crying.
To amazement FC Barcelona believe the clause has now expired and Messi is contracted to the club until 2021 with a 700m euro buy-out clause.
Whatever the cost , Messi is determined to leave the club and he has a lot of support from outside the club and also fans support him.
captain Carles Puyol tweeted on hearing the news on Tuesday: “Respect and admiration, Leo. All my support, amigo.”
“Bartomeu, resign now! You’ve been unable to manage the best footballer ever, a legend made here. Hence why we repeat: Bartoméu resign and elections as soon as possible”, said Font.
