Lionel Messi

Barca fans are gathering near the stadium. Maybe that's what he wanted with this.

You're only advertising your ignorance if you assert he has been 'protected' in the Primera

Falcao rule

Its interesting to see where he end up?

I think we have a change to get him? He has purchased a property in the Torre Solaria skyscraper in Milan and that huge tax reduction for foreign players who move to Italy, might be a factor? Suning can lure some big sponsors and I think Pirelli would also join the party?

This move would be huge for Inter and Serie A! Imagine all the press when Inter meet Juve and Ronaldo!

Imagine if he ends up at Lazio Or Leeds

Him going to real would be the most 2020 thing to happen. Forget the pigs head on the pitch, barca fans would spontaneously combust

Honestly, a move to Real makes more sense than some of the other options out there.

Where did he say that? Only thing I see is a response from someone commenting on Manchester City.

And la liga as a whole (no Sevills jokes please)

tbh releasing messi means they get maybe 100 mil a year of cashflow freed up. Lautaro is suddenly a VERY viable option. 100m transfer fee + 10mil a year net over 5 years is only 40m a year of cashflow.

Why would he go to Barcelona? Only if we force him to make the switch. But why would we force him to leave?

On sky, probably live coverage. I m watching the updates through facebook page Amala.

you've missed my point - my point is that messi going means barca's financial situation is suddenly turned on its head entirely. His wage alone is something like 17-20% of their total gross expenditure I think, which means their wages to turnover ratio goes from 70% to 50%. That puts thme better than Man City or Man Utd, probably not a million miles away from Tottenham. They can suddenly spend money. If Suarez and Vidal go too, you're talking probably 170-220mil euros a year of cashflow freed up.
