Barcelona Candidates Rates Lionel Messi Has Been Cheated

DBasia.news – Barcelona presidential candidate Joan Laporta is determined to bring joy to Lionel Messi again. According to Laporta, so far Messi has been tricked.

Lionel Messi’s future is still a source of speculation since the player’s heated relationship with the club last summer. Messi leaving Barcelona is unthinkable. But it almost happened and it was only because Messi wanted nothing to do with the law that he chose to stay.

Barcelona will hold presidential elections in late January 2021. One of the candidates is Joan Laporta, who led from 2003 to 2010.

One of Laporta’s campaigns was fighting for Messi to hang up his boots in Barcelona. As is known, Messi’s contract expires at the end of this season. Laporta will try Messi to sign a new contract. Laporta reveals the reasons why he believes he can keep Messi.

“Leo wants Barcelona. He wants a dressing room that can give him pleasure. What I want to give him is happiness. It’s not about money, you have to create a competitive team,” Laporta explained as quoted by Sport.

“So far, Leo has been cheated and that is a big loss. He is a winner and can not stand to see other teams lift the Champions League trophy,” said Laporta again.

“I have known Messi since he was 16 years old. He is an extraordinary person. We respect and respect each other.”
