Barcelona coach Kiki Sitten confirmed on Wednesday that the administrative problems currently facing the Catalan team should not threaten the future of Argentine Lionel Messi with the team.
Seetin said - in statements to the Spanish "TV Sport 3" - that the future of the team leader is not threatened because of the behind-the-scenes squabbles inside the castle "Camp Nou".
The stopping of LaLiga, due to the Corona virus pandemic, did not prevent the team from deepening internal crises during the past week.
The resignation of six members of the club’s board of directors came to put more pressure on Josep Maria Bartomeu, president of Barcelona, and the club later pledged to take legal measures against Emily Rosewood, the future vice president.
In remarks he repeated in a public statement on Tuesday, Roussoud accused corruption figures, whose names he did not mention in Barcelona, of allegations which were rejected by the club.
The expected presidential candidate of the club, Victor Font, launched his scathing attack on the Bartomio administration, claiming that Barcelona was at risk of "economic bankruptcy" and that "moral decay" had spread to the club.
Messi has been involved in a struggle with the Barcelona administration over recent months, as he publicly attacked the club's sporting director, Eric Abidal, for criticizing the team following the dismissal of former coach Ernesto Valverde.
The star who won the award for the best football player in the world six times, also expressed his dissatisfaction because of the lack of protection on the part of the Board of Directors to his teammates, while negotiating a reduction in wages due to the crisis of the Corona virus.
As a result, speculation was raised about the possibility of Messi to leave Barcelona and move to Manchester City or Inter Italian, although the player denied this at his Instagram account, as did Sittin, who stressed his confidence that the star of the first team will complete his career with the club.
"These are normal things that happen in major clubs. Perhaps the sad thing is that these crises are transmitted to the media," Seetin said.
"It would be better to work in a quieter environment, but things went that way."
"I don't think what happened made a player like Messi rethink whether or not he will stay with the club," Barcelona coach stressed. "I am sure he will retire at Camp Nou."
Messi's contract expires in Barcelona in the summer of 2021, but he has a clause in his contract that allows him to leave the team in the penultimate season because his contract expires without paying the 700 million euro penalty clause.
With the fate of the current season unclear, Sittin confirms that he focuses only on leading Barcelona to the title, especially that he is at the top of the competition, two points ahead of his closest Real Madrid, with nine games remaining at the end of the season.
