Messi breaks his silence | The mail

Leo Messi will break his silence this Sunday and will offer explanations about his stormy departure from Barcelona after a lifetime dressed as a Barça player. It will do so after Barça issued a brief statement on Wednesday to inform about the non-continuity of the Rosario star, and that on Thursday it was President Joan Laporta who offered the club’s version of the summer news.

Messi will speak from 12 noon in the 1899 Auditorium of the Camp Nou and will submit to questions from journalists. You will be asked to explain the reasons that prevented the verbal agreement reached after many hours of negotiations from being suddenly and unexpectedly broken at the end. Laporta freed the Argentine from guilt and blamed the huge debt generated by the previous management of Josep María Bartomeu and the salary limit demanded by LaLiga for his departure.

Messi, who leaves Barça after 20 years at the club, 17 of them in the first team, could also advance his next destination, which apparently would be linked to Paris Saint-Germain although from the footballer’s environment they insist that he did not have any offer because he took for granted his continuity in the Barça club. In the Parque de los Príncipes he would meet his friend Neymar and in principle also with Kylian Mbappé, Florentino Pérez’s great dream for Real Madrid.
