Calendar of FC Barcelona

The agreement of Lionel Messi with the FC Barcelona is about to to expire and, although the negotiations have advanced positively, the Barcelona club has not received the final decision of his maximum star and much less his patterned signature in a new agreement. However, Joan Laporta and all the members of the club are positive regarding the situation of the Argentinian and expect that, in brief, can announce that 'The Flea' will be still in the Camp Nou further of 30 June.

It is so much the optimism that there is in the Barcelona dispatches that there would be a marked date in the calendar in which they expect that the 'case Messi' resolve definitively and can, finally, announce his renewal. In fact, Laporta has it desvelado recently, aiming that the day 'dreamed' is this 24 June, date in which Leo Messi will celebrate his birthday number 34 and in which the maximum Barcelona mandator celebrates his saint. If no, it aims to be the 29 of this same month.

In concrete, Laporta has announced recently that "it would like me the day of my saint, that is the 24 and his birthday, or the 29, that is my birthday. I can not guarantee how it will finish", so, a priori, there are two dates in which the Barça expects 'celebrate' have fulfilled his more important aim of this summer, that is to achieve retain to his maximum star by, at least, two years more.

Besides, the president culé, in his extensive interview to 'The Avant-garde', also has advanced that everything goes well with the renewal of Leo and that the signing of Sergio Agüero has been key for 'motivate' to the Argentinian forward. "He is ilusionado. I am appreciated of win them that it puts him for remaining ", adding that "besides we did the played of Agüero, that is repeating him every day that it remain and that firm already. The Kun Agüero is helping".

The offer of the Barça to Messi to renew

The blaugrana (and Messi) are conscious that it was impossible to equalise the economic offers of the last agreements of the Argentinian in the Camp Nou, with numbers 'millionaire', given the importance that has his figure for the team and club in general. With the economic crisis by which crosses the Barça, that has aggravated by the pandemia of the coronavirus, both parts have understood that the financial factor is not key for the negotiation and has taken more weight the sportive project of Laporta and company.

Like this then , Messi would see reduced considerably his annual wage with the Barça and would remain, in principle, two years more in the Camp Nou. Afterwards, the club expects to turn him into his ambassador and the Argentinian would play three seasons more in the MLS before withdrawing , probably in the Inter of Miami of David Beckham.
