Lionel Messi is currently yet to sign a new contract renewal at Barcelona with the Spanish club plunging deeper into financial crisis ย
For the last year, Lionel Messi and his ongoing saga at Barcelona has been one of the talking points of world football. Its not only down to the playerโs refusal to sign a new deal at the club but the financial turmoil Barcelona finds itself in.
First beginning when Lionel Messi had claimed he wanted to depart Barcelona back in 2020, the brouhaha around his contract has stretched on. With him deciding to stay with the club last season despite his outlandish comments, Messi is now refusing to aid the club he claims to love so much.
With Barcelona in a soup as they run out of money and a calamitous debt shrouds them, Lionel Messi is currently a free agent. And given the behemoth amount of money he sucks out of the club, Barcelona are finding it extremely tricky to rake together the needful funds.
La Liga Clubs Set To Unite To Spur Barcelonaโs Lionel Messi Contract Renewal
The clubโs horrendous debt has placed the side in a real soup with the team failing to register new transfers Memphis Depay, Eric Garcia and Sergio Aguero owing to the La Liga salary cap. However, help could finally be arriving for the La Liga side.
And it would be in the most unprecedented of manner as well. As per Onda Cero, a string of Presidents of the top clubs in the Spanish club are set to come together in a bid to offer Barcelona help to renew Messiโs contract.
The move is said to be motivated by the La Ligaโs desire to keep Messi in the league. According to these sides, Messi is a must for the growth of the league and ensuring he stays in the competition would not only result in increased global viewership but also a massive inflow of broadcast money.
Barcelona Set To Part Company With Players
As of now, Barcelona are looking to clear their books and offload a slew of outcasts. With the club needing to comply with the La Liga fair play rules, the side is in dire need of clearing up its massive wage bill.
The likes of Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezmann are said to be on the cusp of being let go by the club owing to the mammoth weekly wages they are drawing.
