Messi breaks his silence.

And he does not do it to announce his future, but to challenge LaLiga through a statement signed by his father and representative, Jorge.

The player contradicts LaLiga in relation to the expiration of his contract.

And he goes to Javier Tebas, president of the employer's association, whom they accuse of "obvious partiality."

"We do not know which contract is the one they have analyzed and what are the bases on which they conclude that it would have an applicable termination clause in the event that the player decides to urge the unilateral termination of the same, with effect from the end of the 2019/20 sports season ″, explains the player's father.

And he adds: “This is due to an obvious error on his part.

Thus, as literally stated in clause 8.2.3.6.

of the contract signed between the club and the player ”.

After the Argentine striker communicated by burofax that he would take refuge in the clause of his contract to leave Barça at the end of the 2019-2020 season - the Barça entity considered that this condition had already ended on June 10 while the player maintains that the season did not end until August 23-, the management was positioned in favor of Barcelona.

Last Sunday the Spanish soccer organization analyzed the Argentine's contract and concluded that Messi's link with the Barça club continues in force until June 2021.

"The contract is currently in force and has a termination clause applicable to the event that Lionel Andrés Messi decides to urge the early unilateral termination of the contract, carried out in accordance with article 16 of Royal Decree 1006/1985, of June 26, by the that the special employment relationship of professional athletes is regulated ”, published LaLiga and emphasized that Messi will not be dismissed from the federation if the amount of the 700 million clause has not previously been paid.

A clause that the Messi do not believe is appropriate.

"This compensation will not apply when the termination of the contract by unilateral decision of the player takes effect from the end of the 2019-20 sports season," he explained in the statement.

And he concludes: "Without prejudice to other rights that are included in the contract and that you omit, it is obvious that the compensation of 700 million euros, provided for in the previous clause 8.2.3.5, does not apply at all".

The pulse between Messi and Barcelona continues.
