Messi's future: Joan Laporta accuses PSG of trying to destabilize Barça

The Lionel Messi soap opera should continue for a few more months.

What the Argentine will decide, no one can say at this stage of the season.

But while FC Barcelona finds itself in the midst of a financial and institutional crisis with upcoming elections, the presidential candidates parade through the various media to unveil their campaign arguments.

Joan Laporta, already president from 2003 to 2010, chose the offensive Monday, January 25 in the evening by attacking the policy of PSG, more than ever in the race to welcome Messi, at the end of the contract in six months.

Asked about recent statements by Leonardo and the "chair reserved just in case" at the table of those who follow the case closely, the Catalan replied curtly to the Parisian leaders.

"I don't think this is correct"

“I read that PSG also had financial losses,” explains Joan Laporta in the Desmarcats television program on TVE Catalunya.

We will see if they can make investments.

In any case, what I would ask, if we must also be respectful when talking about names, is that PSG do not set about destabilizing Barça.

We did nothing to make them show their desire to sign Messi halfway through the season.

I don't think this is correct ”.

Statements that also fall within the context of the knockout stages of the Champions League between Barça and PSG (February 16, March 10).

The Catalan press was already offended by Leonardo's words the day after his interview with France Football.

"I do not know, however, if Messi in Paris, it is feasible, said the Brazilian leader.

But we are seated at the large table of those who are following the file closely.

In fact, no, we are not yet seated, but our chair is just reserved in case… ”.
