Leo Messi has communicated to the FC Barcelona this Tuesday, through a burofax, that does not want to be still in the Camp Nou, in addition to asking the rescission of his agreement to be able to leave to cost zero. A news that saw the light in the afternoon and that, in the following hours, has caused numerous reactions in the surroundings of the player and of the club.

Reactions to the decision of Leo Messi

One of the first in reacting has been Carles Puyol, ex captain of the FC Barcelona, in Twitter: "Respect and admiration, Leo. All my support, fellow". Luis Suárez, fellow personnel of the Argentinian star that recently knew that it did not go in in the plans of Ronald Koeman, answered to the message of the ex Catalan defence with two emoticonos of applause. The brother of the Uruguayan commanded a message of quite bad taste: "it put well this and will put better".

Another of the players that coincided with Leo Messi in the FC Barcelona, Gerard Deulofeu, also reacted to the news on the communiqué of Leo Messi to the Catalan entity. "What came speaking... And now what? Who fixes this?", it asked .

Also they happened to the attack the opositores of Josep Maria Bartomeu. One of them was Joan Laporta, also through Twitter, in a very hard message: "Josep Maria Bartomeu and his Board have to resign immediately. They have gone minando the morals of Leo Messi to save they of the desbarajuste economic and sportive that have created. If they resigned still there would be hope that Messi remained in the FC Barcelona", wrote.

Víctor Font, precandidato to the elections of the next month of March, smashed into Josep Maria Bartomeu: "you Know perfectly that if the culés could go to the stadium, all the field would be a clamour: Bartomeu resigns already! You have not been able neither of custodiar to the best of the history, a myth done home. Therefore we insist: Bartomeu resignation and elections the before possible!".

Toni Freixa also spoke in the microphones of Radius Marks: "The agreements are to fulfil them and Messi has to come with the price of the clause. Messi can not come now and ask leave free, because the Barça has fulfilled always with his agreements. Messi can not attribute now an autolibertad. The partners, between Messi and the Barça can us of the side of the Barça. It surprises me that Messi do it of this so unsuitable way".

Josep María Minguella, that took part in the arrival of Leo Messi, also pronounced and think that will go to the Inter of Milan: "it has Me pillado by surprise, yes. One of the grave problems that has had Bartomeu is that it has not had good feeling with the professionals. And the proof is that the Barça has had five sportive directors in five years. And afterwards there are more things. The president goes out and twelve the other day that the players will go cone honours and the next day flames to Luis Suárez by telephone. But this what is? And on Messi, think that everything is very calculated. When they command the of the clause is because you have it very tied. I see him in the Inter, that behind has a multimillionaire", commented.

The ex president Joan Gaspart also pronounced : "it can not leave. It will go in 2021. I have seen the agreement and is very clear. The clause finish in June and no longer there is course backwards I prefer that it go next year by zero to that go to by less than 700 millions. Here it commands the club, no the player. The club has paid to the players. And this is not thing of money, besides. Here there is an agreement signed and smart. And I want to a lot to Messi, but want to more to the Barcelona. That it pay the clause.
