Lionel Messi may end up staying at Barcelona for the remaining one year of his contract.
According to new reports, the Argentine player may be thinking about making a U-turn on his earlier stance on leaving the Spanish club.
On Wednesday, September 2, 2020, Messi’s agent and father. Jorge, had a meeting with Barcelona president, Josep Bartomeu and it reportedly ended in a stalemate as no agreement was reached between both parties over Messi’s fate.
Messi’s camp insists he can leave for free this summer while Barcelona is saying the date for his exit clause has passed.
A report from TyC Sports discloses that the six-time Ballon d’Or winner is considering a dramatic U-turn to see out the remaining year of his contract.
The report further says that top figures at Barcelona have pleaded with Messi to stay and that he will spend Thursday considering his options, but is “90% likely to stay.”
