The economic and sportive crisis of the Barça is not a secret for anybody, but the renewal 'fallida' of Leo Messi (up to now) has destapado the big problems of the club
Something has to be very bad so that, although Lionel Messi was had from does some time to renew his agreement with the FC Barcelona, the club did not go able to arrive to an agreement before 1 July, date in which officially the Argentinian desvinculó of the Barcelona entity and became free agent. Although this 'situation' has date of caducity (does not know which, but has it) has desvelado that the situation in Can Barça is even worse of what boasted .
There are two very marked realities in the 'case Messi'. The first is that the player has put of his part to arrive to an agreement the club and follow defending the Barcelona shield by two years more, at least, reason whereby has accessed to a significant discount of his annual wage and to the postponement of the payments because it is conscious that to economic health of the blaugrana is very grave. This has facilitated the negotiations, but has not determined his ending.
And it is that the second reality, the most impressive and 'hard' to assume is that the Barça, in summary, does not have how include to Leo Messi in his planning for the season 2021-2022 without violating the limit salarial and get in trouble public prosecutors. There, summary all the problems of the club in an alone player... In an alone operation. The blaugrana do not have of where take out money for now (further of the sale of footballers, but have not achieved sufficient exits) and are between the sword and the wall in all the senses, while Messi expects patiently the extension of his agreement, because little more can do.
The subject that has to resolve, in principle, Laporta and company is the one of the limit salarial, as it has desvelado the president. The 'solution' is to ask an increase to LaLiga, aiming that the club foresees the sale of players, the increase of the number of partners or the obtaining of new agreements of sponsorships. It is a task complicated and that it is necessary so that Messi, Agüero, Eric García, Depay or Emerson can be inscribibles for the next course. Only it will remain to see, besides, if Javier Thebes 'help' to the blaugrana in this situation.
A situation complicated to understand
Although it is true that to day of today knows that the Barça is doing all the possible to seal the permanence of the Argentinian, remains the doubt of reason has arrived to this point and did not concretise the renewal a lot before, taking in account that from the club have left to understand that Leo Messi has been had to extend his stay in the Camp Nou from does months and no from does a week or two. At the end of the day the important is that Messi can remain, but is a situation that in some way could be avoidable by all the time that had to arrive to an agreement.
