The Argentine told the club that he wants to leave. The awful relationship with the leaders, the sporting failures and the departure of his friends, among the principal reasons.
The inescapable departure of Lionel Messi from Barcelona
fell like a bomb in the football world. The Argentine advised the club that he
wants to leave, in spite of the fact that from the leadership led by Josep
Bartomeu they seek to put obstacles on his takeoff.
Messi has a termination clause of 700 million euros, however,
there is a thing in wherein toward the finish you can go free by informing the
institution. The authority ensures that this clause expired in June, but for
Rosario this is a remarkable situation because the season was extended due to
the coronavirus pandemic.
Beyond the looming legitimate system, Messi's wear at The Catalan club has developed in recent years for various reasons. Here are the primary
causes of his departure.
1.Bad
relationship with the leaders: for a quite a while the
Argentine has been upset by the leadership. Not just because of the terrible incorporation of a policy that has not performed at the club's level, particularly after the takeoff
of Neymar, with whom he had an extraordinary relationship. Likewise, this year
he had a solid intersection with the previous sports director Eric Abidal, who
was later dislodged by Bartomeu, and furthermore with other individuals of the
leadership due to the salary situation in the pandemic.
2.Sports
failures: Barcelona's most recent outcomes in the Champions League
made a heavy blow to a club that had become used to winning. He was wiped out five
consecutive times, yet the last three in a more difficult way since they turned
him around unordinary results in the initial two chances and was added to the memorable the defeat he suffered against Bayern Munich: elimination in the quarterfinals
against Atletico Madrid in 2016; additionally in the quarterfinals against
Juventus in 2017; again in the quarterfinals against Roma in 2018 after winning
the primary leg 4-1), in the semifinals against Liverpool in 2019 after having
won the main leg 3-0, and lastly the devastating defeat in the semis against Bayern
Munich 8-2.
3. The
changes of technicians: Messi disagreed with the takeoff of
Ernesto Valverde at the beginning of the year. The appearance of Quique Setien didn't
leave the Argentine cheerful either. Also, if there was an opportunity he
would remain, the recruiting of Ronald Koeman did not persuade him. They had a gathering
and Leo himself disclosed to him that he looked more outside than inside the club.
In that meeting, the mentor raised his project, but Messi was not convinced by
what he proposed.
4. The departure of Luis Suarez: As if that were insufficient, the
Dutchman expects to manage without Luis Suarez and several historical figures
that the Argentine has an incredible appreciation of. The Uruguayan and the
Argentine are companions both on and off the pitch, however, Koeman would have just
confirmed to Suarez that he would not be considered for next season. The courses
in making this choice with the Uruguayan didn't leave Leo glad either, since Suarez
are his fundamental help in the dressing room and one of his closest friends and
La Pulga considers that he deserved substantially more respect for his profession
and what he has left in the game.
5.The
lack of hierarchy in the team: Without Suarez, and with
the flight of different players, Messi doesn't see that Barcelona has the essential
progressive system to fight the Champions League one year from now. Also, the
Flea needs to keep competing and winning in the most significant competition in
Europe. The organization will have to spend a great amount of money and get the
incorporation policy right if it intends to fight at the top, however, the
background in the election of the reinforcements does not energize the Flea.
