Is Lionel Messi Leaving
Barcelona? Why wouldn't he? Barcelona was humiliated on Friday (August 14),
with Bayern Munich defeating them by 8-2. And Barcelona's heavy defeat against
Bayern Munich in the Champions League has brought the Barcelona Management under
the spotlight. One of the most successful and skilled clubs in Europe have
found themselves on the negative side. Nothing has been going well for
Barcelona this season. Barcelona couldn't lift the La Liga title this season
and slipped 5 points behind league leaders Real Madrid. But the bad just got
worst from after that Barcelona were lost 8-2 to Bayern Munich in the UEFA
Champions League Quarter Final cup tie on Friday (August 14). And to add more
to that, Lionel Messi reportedly
wants to leave Barcelona at the end of the summer.
After a heavy defeat to Bundesliga
Champions Bayern Munich, Lionel Messi has reportedly told Barcelona that he
wants to leave the club at the end of the season. Lionel Messi's contract is
due to end next year, but Lionel Messi wants to leave Barcelona now at the end
of this summer. If this happens, this could be one of the biggest and the
weirdest transfers of the summer. Lionel Messi has spent his entire
professional career at Barcelona, and his leaving could be the biggest news
we've had in footballing history. If there is any truth to Lionel Messi's
story, Lionel Messi could leave Barcelona and become available during this
year's summer transfer window
Lionel Messi is one of the top
footballers of the generation. Compared with the likes of Pele, Lionel Messi
has been an influential player for both his club and his national team. Lionel
Messi has spent over two decades of his professional football career at
Barcelona. Numerous sources have reported that Lionel Messi has expressed his
desire to leave Barcelona at the end of the summer. However, there is NO
official statement received from Barcelona or Lionel Messi regarding the
alleged transfer request put in by Lionel Messi. Lionel Messi is one of the top
players in football. However, he is struggling to find the support frame in
place behind him at Barcelona. After Barcelona's 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich on
Friday, questions are being asked of the Barcelona Management. Several have
criticized Barcelona for poor transfer decisions and horrendous policies as a
reason behind their defeat to Bayern Munich.
And to make matters worse, reports
indicate that Lionel Messi has expressed his desire to leave Barcelona at the
end of this summer. Lionel Messi's contract at Barcelona expires in 2021.
However, Lionel Messi doesn't wish to wait till his contract is up and wants to
leave Barcelona now. Therefore, if Lionel Messi does leave Barcelona, he will
be available for purchase in the Summer 2020 transfer window. But Where Will
Lionel Messi go?
Where
Will Lionel Messi Go?
If
Lionel Messi does leave Barcelona, many clubs will be knocking at his door for
his services. There is no doubt about Lionel Messi's ability and influence as a
footballer. Therefore, if Lionel Barcelona leaves Barcelona, he will be looking
to carry on his strength and influence to the next club. But where will Lionel
Messi Go? Here are a few possible destinations where Lionel Messi could play
his football next season
1. Manchester City: This
is one of the most likely destinations where Lionel Messi could end up. The
major behind this is Pep Guardiola. Pep Guardiola and Lionel Messi share a deep
connection and history when it comes to the football field. Apart from Pep
Guardiola, Lionel Messi has a chance to win the most competitive domestic
league in the world. Though Manchester City isn't short on strong players, they
lack in the winning department. Lionel Messi could put Manchester City on the
track to win the Champions League. Therefore, Lionel Messi could go to
Manchester City, where he will reunite with his old boss and former Barcelona
manager, Pep Guardiola.
2. PSG: This is another
possible destination for Lionel Messi. After acquiring Neymar, PSG could be
looking to grab another Catalan to bolster their squad. And Lionel Messi has
the support frame he needs behind him if he leaves Barcelona and goes to PSG.
PSG has a progressive manager, and with the likes of Neymar-Mbappe-Messi, the
club could reach new heights in European Football.
4. Juventus: Juventus is
yet another club where Lionel Messi could end up if he is to leave Barcelona.
If this does happen, we could see two of the greatest footballers sharing the
field at the same time for the same field. If Lionel Messi is to leave
Barcelona and join Juventus, he could join fellow Cristiano Ronaldo, who is
currently at Juventus after leaving Real Madrid.
