Messi Gives His Opinion on Bartomeu, Guardiola and Neymar

DBasia.news – Barcelona captain Lionel Messi talks about many things with La Sexta. Messi reveals his relationship with Josep Maria Bartomeu and Pep Guardiola. In addition, his former team-mate, Neymar, also did not escape the discussion.

Lionel Messi again spoke up about his problems with Barcelona last summer. Messi admitted that the main actor behind the dispute was the president, Josep Maria Bartomeu.

Messi feels Bartomeu is lying a lot. In fact, his only wish is to leave Barcelona.

“Bartomeu deceived me in many ways. I chose not to explain in detail. However, there have been many lies over the years,” said Lionel Messi.

“I spent the whole year telling Bartomeu I wanted to leave Barcelona. However, the president always says no.”

“Burofax is the way to make it official. I need a change. I want to go, the cycle at Barca is over, that’s what I think,” said Messi.

In addition to mentioning his relationship with Bartomeu, Messi also expressed the importance of Pep Guardiola’s presence in his career development. Inevitably, the issue of Messi and Guardiola’s reunion at Manchester City was getting stronger.

“I don’t know how long the last ball with Pep Guardiola. However, we talk to each other.”

“We are not talking about whether to meet again. For me, Guardiola is the best. He has something special,” said Messi.

Messi also discussed the issue of Neymar’s return to Barcelona. For Messi, this transfer is difficult to materialize.

“Neymar? Bringing Neymar back to Barcelona will be very expensive. It is difficult to see the transfer during the new president,” said La Pulga.

Lionel Messi will not play in Barcelona’s match against Eibar on Wednesday (30/12). Messi is reportedly recovering from an injury.
