Lionel Messi continued to speak out in the final year of his contract at Barcelona. Finally, Messi asked Barcelona to reunite after a dispute in the transfer market.
Messi stated that he was aware of the mistakes that had occurred due to the polemic of wanting to move in the transfer market.
But Messi also underlined that his desire was based on a desire to see Barcelona stronger than ever.
Messi also emphasized that his comments on Barcelona’s decision to oust Luis Suarez were natural.
“There are many who think that I should shut up and let that happen, but a lot of things have hurt me in recent weeks and that’s how I express it,” Messi was quoted as saying by Marca.
Messi posted a comment on Instagram that Luis Suarez did not get the proper farewell as one of the important players in the club’s history.
“You deserve to come out with your status as one of the most important players in the history of the club, achieving a lot of important things both group and individually.”
“You don’t deserve to go out the way they did. But the fact is, right now there is nothing else that can surprise me,” Messi said on Instagram.
Messi’s chatter actually made Messi much more active in commenting on his relationship with the club than in previous seasons.
The success of Messi tied by Barcelona also does not mean the complete victory of the club management. Messi did decide to stay, but Messi’s contract ended this season.
Without a contract extension, Messi will leave on a free transfer.
Coach Ronald Koeman began to worry about his position at Barcelona after the statement by superstar Lionel Messi.
Koeman opened his voice after Messi opened up about his desire to move from the Blaugrana before deciding to stay this season. In his statement, Messi hopes that all parties in Barcelona will unite.
However, in a press conference ahead of against Celta Vigo in the Spanish League, Friday (2/10), Koeman admitted that he did not know about his fate as Barcelona coach in the future after Messi’s statement.
“I don’t know whether after Messi’s statement, I will have a quiet life as a coach,” Koeman was quoted as saying by Marca.
“However, the positive is the captain asked us to unite. This is always very positive, and I hope we are calmer than what we have experienced lately,” said Koeman added.
On that occasion, the Dutch coach also promised to find the best formula for La Pulga.
“As a coach I have to find the best team so that he can shine and give the best,” said Koeman.
“He lives for football and even in training he does everything to win. The medicine for Leo to be happy in this team is to win games,” said the former Ajax Amsterdam coach.
