Messi sees future away from Barcelona
Lionel Messi has reportedly told new Barcelona coach, Ronald Koeman that he sees his future away from Barcelona than with the club.
This revelation was made by Catalan radio station, RAC 1 today after it was reported that the Argentine legend cut his vacation short to have a face to face with Koeman.
Messi has reportedly been considering his future at the club as he does not seem to be in agreement with the direction the club is heading under the leadership of president, Josep Bartomeu. Rumors of him and his father buying an apartment in Milan have not helped matters amidst constant speculation that he could be on his way to join Italian giants, Inter Milan. The club’s performances in the just concluded season have also given him a cause for concern, a first trophyless season since 2005 culminating in embarrassing 8-2 loss in the last game of the season to German club side, Bayern Munich have been enough to make Messi consider his future at the club.
The report did state that Messi understands how difficult it would be for him to move this season as he still has a contract with the club that runs until 2021 with a 700 million Euros release clause but the top clubs across Europe will certainly be on high alert as the monitor how events unfold at the Camp Nou.
