“Messi thinks the same way.” Barcelona presidential candidate on Xavi’s statements
Barcelona legend and former head coach Xavi recently explained why Messi did not renew his contract with Barcelona, placing the blame on Laporta. Now it is being said that Lionel shares the same view.
Details: Another leading candidate for the Barcelona presidency, Victor Font, stated that Messi also believes Laporta is responsible for the situation.
Quote: “Leo Messi thinks exactly the same as Xavi said in La Vanguardia. One day he will come out and explain it,” Victor Font said.
Xavi also stated that Messi will not return to Camp Nou because Joan Laporta does not want it, not because of La Liga.
However, Laporta himself has stated that the club wants to hold a match in honor of Lionel Messi and build a statue for him near the renovated Camp Nou.
Reminder: Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick used the opportunity during the post-match press conference after the clash with Athletic Bilbao to clarify the situation surrounding his most discussed tactical feature.
