DBasia.news – President of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, assessed that the arrival of Lionel Messi to Italy would not be able to fix the financial problems that occurred. According to him, the conditions that occur in Serie A were too chronic.
The issue of Lionel Messi’s return to Serie A came back after former Inter Milan president, Massimo Moratti, said bringing La Pulga was not a forbidden dream. Moratti rates, the Nerazzurri is able to take advantage of Barcelona’s interest in Lautaro Martinez to bring in the Argentine superstar.
Javier Tebas also responded to Massimo Moratti’s point of view. He saw that Messi could not be El Messiah (the savior) for financial problems in Serie A.
“I am unsure that the arrival of Lionel Messi can solve the Serie A problem of a high debt relationship with insufficient income,” Tebas explained as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport.
Indeed, in terms of prestige, the Serie A charts has began to improve after Juventus recruited another superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo. CR7 has made them glance back to Serie A.
“The amounts in Serie A are under financial pressure which is really happening. Lionel Messi cannot solve that problem,” he continued.
Javier Tebas believes LaLiga will not lose its appeal despite Lionel Messi leaving Barcelona. He was confident after LaLiga passed the period left by Cristiano Ronaldo.
“I want Lionel Messi to stay here. However, if he leaves, it will not be a tragedy,” explained the president.
“People say we will lose a lot of money when Cristiano Ronaldo leaves. However, we actually received more money, even in Portugal. Star players can help, but not for a big league.”
Lionel Messi’s future in Barcelona is still uncertain. The 32-year old player is still reluctant to sign a contract given by Barcelona.
