Barcelona have declared they will pursue legal action after details surrounding Lionel Messi contract talks were released in the Spanish press.
Back in 2020, the Argentine superstar was in talks to extend his stay at the Camp Nou - 12 months before he ultimately joined Paris Saint-Germain. Messi had gone into that summer hoping to reach an agreement, before trying and failing to engineer an exit.
And on Wednesday, a list of the Messi's proposed demands was leaked by El Mundo, who obtained a series of emails between the player’s father and agent, Jorge Messi, his lawyers and then-Barcelona’s president Josep Maria Bartomeu and then-CEO Oscar Grau.
