Candidate for the presidency of FC Barcelona, Jordi Farré is not against a departure of Lionel Messi. He is ready to let him return to his training club to allow him to better end his career in Catalonia.
Josep Maria Bartomeu presented his resignation from FC Barcelona earlier this week, before a provisional management was elected. The main objective of the latter will be to ensure the transition to the new era of the Blaugrana. And obviously, several candidates will fight to become the new boss of the Catalan club. Among them, Victor Font, who announced in particular that he wanted to bring back club legends such as Pep Guardiola, Xavi, Iniesta or Puyol. But also Jordi Farré, who for his part advanced a much more surprising argument.
« We would be happy if Leo Messi asked us to spend a year at Newell’s, before returning and ending his career at Barça, ”explained the candidate in an interview with TyC Sports. One way to ensure great freedom for La Pulga, who could well have left Barça this summer. But perhaps not the idea that will appeal to Barcelona socios the most.
