Barcelona club president, Joan Laporta, confirmed that the return of the former first-team attacking duo, Argentine Lionel Messi and Brazilian Neymar da Silva, is not possible at the present time due to the financial crisis that the Catalan giant is suffering from, and that they must return to Barcelona one day for free.
Laporta told the Catalan newspaper, “Le Esporto”, “Messi and Neymar must return to Barcelona one day for free, as we are not in a current situation that allows us to make such deals right now, even if we have money, it will be irrational deals, and in the end the decision of the coach is whether they are able.” To participate in the new Barcelona project or not, and as two players I love so much.”
He explained:
Who does not like Neymar?
He is an exceptional player, but he has a contract with Paris Saint-Germain, and he has 4 or 5 years in the stadiums, and those players who signed contracts with clubs like Paris Saint-Germain, they sign contracts like slavery for money."
He added, "Messi left Barcelona, and we all wanted him to retire while he was in Barcelona, but for reasons everyone knows, this did not happen, because of the fair financial play in the Spanish League."
He continued, "There was a strong offer from Paris Saint-Germain, and these players, when they move to financially strong clubs, find that they cannot get out of them, because they receive millions, and I do not know how Paris Saint-Germain will deal with Neymar's future with all this money they pay!" ".
It is noteworthy that Neymar had left Barcelona in the year 2017 to Paris Saint-Germain on a penalty clause of 222 million euros, before last season carrying Messi's departure from the Catalan team after the expiration of his contract with Barcelona.
