But many issues Messi will stay for Barcelona but he must got 50% deduct salary from last season.
Many players will become victims if messi is still on Barcelona which doesn't want to deduct his salary, but still have time until 31 August if Barca doesn't resolve this, probably Messi can't play until the winter windows. I hope Messi going to another club to take a new experience, 20 years is a very long time, isn't he bored?. I know Barcelona is one the best club ever, but a player needs something new to improve another skill, maybe he wants to be a coach, that is need another reference with play with many clubs.
He did already agree to a salary reduction of 50%. Of course he still earns a shit ton of money, but come on he deserves it. He is just a player out of this world and most others are not. It's the same in any sport. Whether it is Harding or Curry in the NBA or Brady in the MLB. You can't just ask Messi to play for 10 million gross. I don't think the new contract is done yet. It has been said in the media but as long as there is no signature I think everything is possible. I wish he would go to Manchester City.
