Messi was to a step of fichar by the Manchester City

If in the last markets of signings the FC Barcelona was being protagonist by his problems to the hour to close his aims, seems that now the tendency has turned to seed the doubts in the stars of the Barcelona group. This year it is being Neymar, but the past could be Leo Messi, that overwhelmed by his problems with Inland revenue posed his course of the Camp Nou.

And as it affirms 'TV3' in his documentary 'Jocs Fiscals', the idea was more near to turn into a reality of what in principle could think. On 6 July 2016 it was his father the one who called by telephone to Ferran Soriano, director of the Manchester City, to communicate that the one of Rosario wanted to abandon the City Condal, and few days later, was Pep Guardiola the one who received a call for concertar a meeting with the crack.

The one of Santpedor did not doubt in attending to the call of the Argentinian, with which saves a good relation in spite of his distance in his final stage in the Barça. In his meeting, the forward explained that it felt trapped by the problems with Inland revenue, that loomed with carrying him to prison after being condemned to 21 months by three fiscal crimes.

The decision of Leo Messi was to gather with the Catalan in the Manchester City and move away of the problems that pursued him in Barcelona, although it was another meeting the one who began to seal his continuity. Josep Maria Bartomeu, also alerted by the father of the '10', confirmed in several occasions that the club did not think in leaving him leave, and signalled him the importance of his path like Barcelona.

Intervention of the changing room

The rope did not tighten until breaking , and is that after a lot of days of reflection, Leo Messi decided finally that his future would be still in the Camp Nou. As already it has tried now with Neymar, there were some members of the staff that had incidence in his thoughts, between them Luis Suárez, one of the big artífices of the permanence of the rosarino. Now the waters already go down calmer, and is that the river has revolved in relation to the Brazilian, that this time yes, could leave a remarkable hole in the first team of the Barça.
