The calm that Barcelona lived after undefeatedly starting the “re-foundation” that Ronald Koeman is carrying out seems to be fictitious. According to the television program The beach bar, there is a strong conflict within the dressing room blaugrana, which has face to face with the two main references of the campus. The journalist Eduardo Inda assured that Lionel Messi “broke relations” with Gerard Piqué, another of the team’s captains and historical figures for not supporting him in his fight against the leadership and President Josep María Bartomeu.
The Argentine, tired of some sports measures taken by the Catalan board of directors, decided to send a burofax publicly announcing his intention to go to another team in search of new objectives. However, after some tense negotiations, the ’10’ decided to stay for the remaining year of his contract to avoid initiating legal action against Barcelona.
“Throughout the soap opera, Messi waited for the breath of a player from Barca. Days passed and no breath came. There were players who did publicly position themselves in favor of the Argentine, directly or indirectly. Leo Messi expected the public support of a player who is a symbol of Barça. And the days passed, and the breath never came “, the journalist began his story.
In one of his public discharges (he made a post on Instagram making clear his discontent over the departure of Luis Suárez to Atlético Madrid, a direct rival in the bid to obtain La Liga), several footballers and old club glories supported to flea, but the Spanish defender never made any gesture.
“This caused Messi to now have an almost non-existent relationship. After telling this they will embrace and do those dramatizations that nobody believes. But the relationship is totally broken. Messi does not forgive him that this breath never came, “stressed the panelist of the program. It is worth noting that both players have known each other since childhood, since they comprised of the glorious category 87 of the Barcelona club. Together, in the first team, they won 29 titles: 8 Leagues, 6 Copa del Rey, 6 Spanish Super Cup, 3 Champions League, 3 European Super Cup and 3 Club World Cups
To close, Inda revealed the enigmatic one he promised during the program: “He is a huge player, very smart. He’s one of the captains. It’s Gerard Piqué. Y Leo is pissed off. I was waiting for that support”.
After the departures of some heavyweights, such as Luis Suárez, Arturo Vidal and Ivan Rakitic, both Lionel Messi and Gerard Piqué are the two main references in the dressing room and the two mainstays that director Ronald Koeman chose to carry out this re-foundation after the historic elimination in the quarterfinals in the last Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich.
With the Dutchman sitting on the substitute bench, Barcelona has officially played three games this season: 4-0 against Villarreal in the Camp Nou, 3 to 0 against Celta in Vigo and a 1 to 1 equality against Seville. With these results, he appears in fifth place in the standings with 7 units, three less than the leader Real Madrid (he has one more commitment than the Catalans).
