After so many months of uncertainty, Barça is close to getting the long-awaited signature of Leo Messi to seal his continuity at the club
The last months have been full of uncertainty, but the result of all the wait is more than clear: Leo Messi does not move of the FC Barcelona. The club has to resolve first several economic subjects, but the continuity of the Argentinian is pactada, to fault of the signature of his new agreement that will keep him in the Camp Nou until the season 2025-2026, as it has desvelado in the last days.
Arrive to a half point between what can offer the club and the pretences of Messi has carried time and effort, but has reached an agreement. In this situation, the big relation between Joan Laporta and the Argentinian, in addition to the anxieties that has Leo to follow dressing the elastic Barcelona, were keys so that, to fault of confirmation, 'The Flea' follow leading to the club of his life by five years more.
The economic subject and public prosecutor had braked, by several weeks, the subject of his agreement. In principle, it went to close an agreement by two years like player in the Barça and three more like ambassador, from another team (probably in the MLS) to be able to differ the payments of his agreement. However, this resulted a quebradero of head for both parts because they could put in serious legal problems by the payments to Messi without being footballer of the club, something that is not allowed and that would cause him new problems with The Inland revenue.
Nevertheless, after the consecusión of the Glass America, the first title of 'The Flea' with Argentina, the situation gave a very different twist that invited to the Barça dream with more strengths with his continuity. Like this, both parts have arrived to an agreement that benefits to all: Leo will sign an agreement of five years (will have 39) perceiving the half of the wage that had up to now. It has spoken that it will earn 40 gross millions to the year, by what the reduction is impressive, knowingly that it is in conditions to demand what he want by all what has meant for the club and all what still contributes, inside and out of the field (by the subject of the T-shirts, sponsorships...).
Messi, smart to go back
It expects that the announcement of the extension of his stay in the Camp Nou announce in the next days. The agreement, as you report them, is in the hands of the legal area, so much of the club as of the player, to verify that all was correct. In the meantime, Messi is resting in Miami beside his family, after a frantic season with the FC Barcelona and Argentinian that culminated with two titles, the one of the Glass of Rey and the Glass America. It will return to the City Condal at the beginning of August.
Simultaneously, the Barça is working in the reduction of his mass salarial, with sales, cessions or barters. The club has to do him hollow to the Argentinian and the rest of signings (Eric García, Sergio the 'Kun' Agüero, Emerson Royal, Memphis Depay or Saúl Ñíguez, if it finish arriving to the Camp Nou).
