Barça insinuates that LaLiga blackmailed the club with Messi and CVC

Eduard Romeu, economic vice-president of the FC Barcelona, spoke in 'RAC1' on the economic situation of the club and of the course of Leo Messi​. The blaugrana explained how were the negotiations with LaLiga to close the continuity of the Argentinian and left clear that from the championship tied the renewal of the '10' to that the Barça accepted the agreement with the investment fund CVC.

"There were meetings between Thebes and Laporta, but went meetings without teaching any paper. When they demanded these papers did not arrive us, and when they arrived us had to sign them in half hour. They arrived late and with nocturnidad and the general director said that it was impossible to sign", signalled, confirming also that what LaLiga did in this case was a species of blackmail to attain the "himself" of the culés to CVC.

"They put the calificativo: they Sign this and will be able to inscribe to this player. And it was ours definite sentence. It seems that somebody wants to that the Barça do not go back to be what was. It supposed 2.600 million investment and, with the parameters of LaLiga, gave him back 22.000 millions", explained the economic vice-president barcelonista, outraged. To his time, insisted in that the continuity of Messi was not viable financially speaking.

"All wanted to that Messi was in the team. We ask opinion to our economic commission. Have a dictamen very lapidarian in this regard. It is not an intentional decision neither wayward. It was unfeasible to sign this operation", indicated. Besides, to the thread of all this, loaded with hardness against Javier Thebes by not taking care to the Barcelona and to the Real Madrid, that are the two clubs that promote the championship historically speaking.

Attack to Thebes and optimism for 2022

"I only remit me to the business case. Thebes is an agent. The two clubs that are the two more notable, that between the two add near of the 90 percent of the income of the League, and carries badly with the two. There is a basic problem and seems me unintelligent", stood out. After this, left very clear that the accounts of the Barça are saneando little by little and that in the summer of 2022 looks forward to attend to the market of signings with some normality.

"In two years this has to be a thunder. And like this it will be. We work so that the season that comes the club go back to be in the market of signing. I do not see excessive problem to achieve the resources. It is necessary to go on doing an effort of discount salarial. We have to be very rigorous in this sense", repeated. Therefore, the discounts salariales will continue with the end that the accounts of the entity breathe and like this can go back to compete in the market.
